摘要
Deletion of autoreactive T cells during the induction of self tolerance has been directly demonstrated. However, it is still relatively easy to detect self reactivity in normal healthy animals. In this article, Guy Gammon, Eli Sercarz and Gilles Benichou speculate on which T cells may escape tolerance induction and discuss how these cells could subsequently be involved in autoimmunity.
