Serum from normal individuals contains substantial amounts of natural antibodies (NA) capable of recognizing self antigens. However, the physiological implications of this autoreactivity remain unclear. We have examined the role of self-reactive NA and complement in mediating the uptake of human thy

## Abstract It is widely believed that DC, but not macrophages, prime naïve T cells __in vivo__. Here, we investigated the ability of CD68‐expressing cells (commonly defined as macrophages) in priming autoreactive T cells and initiating collagen‐induced arthritis (CIA) in the mouse. For this purpos
