The thymus prevents autoimmunity by inducing apoptosis of the T cells that express autoreactive receptors to self peptides. But this mechanism alone is insufficient and CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells ...
The ability of a human body to resist pathogenic factors is under control of immune cells, the most important of which are lymphocytes. The first subtype called effector lymphocytes, contacts with ...
UCSF researchers have identified a molecular mechanism that explains why patients with tumors of the thymus, or thymoma, often develop autoimmune disorders. The team’s findings are published as a case ...
Scientists at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) have found a mechanism in the immune systems of mice that can lead to the development of autoimmune disease when turned off. The findings shed ...
Scientists have discovered a mechanism that amplifies the autoimmune reaction in an early stage of pancreatic islet autoimmunity prior to the progression to clinical type 1 diabetes. If the ...
Post-zygotic genetic incompatibility can ensue when hybridization brings together gene products that no longer function properly together in the same genome, thus reducing gene flow among incompatible ...
NEW YORK, Sept. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Breakthrough T1D (formerly JDRF), the Lupus Research Alliance, and the National Multiple Sclerosis Society today announce the recipients of the Common ...
