## Abstract Apoptosis is an important mechanism enabling the selection of the nonβselfβreactive T cell repertoire and for maintaining homeostasis in the immune system after it has expanded to combat infections. Highly activated, proliferating T cells become susceptible to apoptosis driven by a numb

## Abstract The hallmark of the dengue hemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome is hematologic abnormality. The pathogenesis of dengue hemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome remains unknown. Our work showed that the dengue virus serotypeβ2 induced apoptosis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells
## Abstract The immune privilege of the anterior chamber (AC) of the eye is largely due to the active downβregulation of systemic delayedβtype hypersensitivity (DTH) that is evoked when antigens are introduced into this ocular compartment. This antigenβspecific suppression of DTH has been termed an
The etiological diagnosis in many cases of uveitis is hampered by the lack of insight into the pathogenesis of the disease. Animal models might provide clues for the understanding of the ocular and systemic processes leading to this invalidating disease. The immune system seems to play an important
