The process of thymic selection is critical for the generation of the mature T-cell repertoire, yet the nature of the self-peptides that serve this function is not known. Several studies suggest that tissue-specific auto-antigens are expressed in the thymus. We initiated this study to examine the ex
The vertebrate immune system has evolved to protect against invasive pathogens, but with this adaptation comes the risk of autoimmunity, the recognition and destruction of self tissues by cells of the immune system. To avoid this problem the system has evolved active mechanisms by which tolerance is
