Self-reactive B cells are eliminated in a series of checkpoints that are triggered by antigen binding. Recent reports have shown that in addition to the processes of elimination at the immature B-cell stage, B-cell anergy and regulation of T-cell help, self-reactive cells are also controlled by foll
human lymphocytes. These results suggest that the common immunological epitope within gp41 induces increased levels of antibodies that can interact with IFN-␣ and IFN-. Gringeri et al. demonstrated that HIVinfected patients treated with an IFN-␣ vaccine showed a significant reduction in the rate o
