ollowing antigen exposure, mature lymphocytes require intense, prolonged and repeated proliferation to establish a rapid immune response and generate immunological memory. Proliferation also precedes induction of tolerance to soluble antigens. In addition, immune cells in bone marrow or thymus under
Effector CD4 and CD8 T cell immune responses to cytochrome P450IID6 (CYP2D6), the autoantigen of autoimmune hepatitis type 2 (AIH-2), are permitted by a numerical and functional impairment of CD4(pos) CD25(high) regulatory T cells (T-regs). We aimed to investigate whether T-regs specific for CYP2D6
