Immune Tolerance
Immune tolerance is critical to prevent the development of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Although the concept of tolerance has long been established, researchers continue to uncover previously unknown mechanisms and therapeutic applications of immune tolerance.
Below is a collection of scientific resources for your immune tolerance research.
Regulatory T Cells
Ethan Shevach and Todd Davidson. This poster provides an updated overview of the development, phenotype and functions of regulatory T cells, in particular those subsets that express the transcription factor forkhead box P3 (FOXP3).
