abstract：:Antigen-induced activation of T cells can be specifically inhibited by antigen analogs that have been termed T-cell receptor peptide antagonists. These antagonists appear to act by inducing the formation of nonstimulatory or partially stimulatory complexes between T-cell receptors and the major histocompatibility comp...
