Current Opinion in Immunology
... The use of SIT for AID has lagged behind SIT for allergy. This may be because AIDs are more heterogeneous than allergic diseases; the disease-initiating or target antigen may not be known; and/or the immune pathogenesis of AID is associated with epitope spreading [18] and substantial tissue damage m ...

Dealing with Garbage is the Immune System`s Main Job

They respond to the stimulus, spread a local cytokine alarm, mature, and then run to the lymph node to direct T cells to act. During their maturation and t ...

The cytotoxic granules are released only in the direction of the target cell, aligned along the immune synapse, to avoid non-specific bystander damage to healthy surrounding tissue (see Figure 1).
