The potential of human regulatory T cells generated
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
Regulatory T cells prevent autoimmunity by suppressing the reactivity of potentially aggressive self-reactive T cells. Contact-dependent CD4+ CD25+ 'professional'... -

Clues to the etiology of autoimmune diseases through analysis of immunoglobulin genes
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
The role of autoantibodies in the etiology of autoimmune diseases remains unclear. However, an examination of the sequences of these autoantibodies can be... -

The role of X-chromosome inactivation in female predisposition to autoimmunity
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
We propose that the phenomenon of X-chromosome inactivation in females may constitute a risk factor for loss of T-cell tolerance; specifically that skewed... -

The human exosome: an autoantigenic complex of exoribonucleases in myositis and scleroderma
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
The anti-PM/Scl autoantibodies are known to characterize a subset of autoimmune patients with myositis, scleroderma (Scl), and the PM/Scl overlap syndrome. The major... -

T-cell-mediated control of autoimmunity
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
Inflammatory responses provoked by pathogens are antigen-specific in their induction but are nonspecific in their effects. Consequently, they are potentially damaging... -
