Immune Tolerance Regulation Is Critical to Immune Homeostasis [PDF]
The body’s immune response plays a critical role in defending against external or foreign antigens while also preserving tolerance to self-antigens. This equilibrium, referred to as immune homeostasis, is paramount for overall health.

Approaches to Establishing Tolerance in Immune Mediated Diseases
The development of rational approaches to restore immune tolerance requires an iterative approach that builds on past success and utilizes new mechanistic insights into immune-mediated pathologies. This article will review concepts that have evolved from

Immune Tolerance in the Oral Mucosa [PDF]
The oral mucosa is a site of intense immune activity, where a large variety of immune cells meet to provide a first line of defense against pathogenic organisms. Interestingly, the oral mucosa is exposed to a plethora of antigens from food and commensal bacteria that must be tolerated. The mechanisms that enable this tolerance are not yet fully defined.

Advancements in immune tolerance [PDF]
In recent years, considerable attention has been given to immune tolerance and its potential clinical applications for the treatment of cancers and autoimmune diseases, and the prevention of allo-graft rejection and graft-versus-host diseases. Advances in our understanding of the underlying mechanisms of establishment and maintenance of immune ...

A Breakdown of Immune Tolerance in the Cerebellum [PDF]
Cerebellar dysfunction can be associated with ataxia, dysarthria, dysmetria, nystagmus and cognitive deficits. While cerebellar dysfunction can be caused by vascular, traumatic, metabolic, genetic, inflammatory, infectious, and neoplastic events, the cerebellum is also a frequent target of autoimmune attacks. The underlying cause for this vulnerability

Immune Tolerance and Transplantation [PDF]
Successful allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and solid organ transplantation require development of a degree of immune tolerance against allogeneic antigens. T lymphocytes play a critical role in allograft rejection, graft failure, and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).

Immune Tolerance of the Human Decidua [PDF]
The endometrium is necessary for implantation, complete development of the placenta, and a successful pregnancy. The endometrium undergoes repeated cycles of proliferation, decidualization (differentiation), and shedding during each menstrual cycle.

Immunosuppression causes dynamic changes in expression QTLs in psoriatic skin
Psoriasis is a chronic, systemic inflammatory condition primarily affecting skin. While the role of the immune compartment (e.g., T cells) is well established, the changes in the skin compartment are more poorly understood.
