Evidence for anti-tubulin autoantibodies in the form of immune complexes in human sera.

abstract：:Interstitial mononuclear cell infiltration in rats during the development of autoimmune Heymann nephritis (HN) was studied using the fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) technique. The results were compared with those obtained by immunohistochemical studies of infiltrating T helper (T-h) and T suppressor/cytotoxic (T-...

abstract：:Regulatory T cells (T(regs)) may inhibit immunity against cancer. Induction and expansion of T(regs) in the immunosuppressive microenvironment created by a growing tumour appear to be one of the mechanisms by which it can evade host defence. We studied the impact of CD25+ T(regs) in a B cell lymphoma model in which Ra...
