## Abstract Autoimmune diseases are characterized by the loss of tolerance toward self‐antigens and the induction of destructive immune responses leading to tissue damage. Most patients with autoimmune diseases are treated with immunosuppressive drugs that suppress the immune response in a non‐spec

## Abstract In this review, we discuss T‐cell activation, etiology, and the current therapies of autoimmune diseases (i.e., MS, T1D, and RA). T‐cells are activated upon interaction with antigen‐presenting cells (APC) followed by a “bull's eye”‐like formation of the immunological synapse (IS) at the
