摘要：

Do autoimmune diseases develop 'spontaneously' or are they induced by environmental triggers, such as infectious agents? This is a central- and challenging-question in the autoimmunity field. A new study in this issue provides strong evidence for a virus-induced autoimmune process in a human neurological disease.
