Therapeutic effects of preferential induction of mite-specific T helper 0 clones.

abstract：:Blood monocytes of patients with thyroid autoimmune disease (TAID) display defects in rearranging their cortical actomyosin cytoskeleton ('polarize') in response to chemoattractants. Such rearrangements also take place after the adherence of monocytes to the extracellular matrix (ECM). It is therefore not surprising t...
