OX40/OX40L Axis Impairs Follicular and Natural Regulatory T Cell Function in Human Systemic Lupus
Background/Purpose: Regulatory T cells (Treg) are impaired in human Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and contribute to T cell activation. However, the mechanisms responsible for the…Abstract Number: 2323 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
A Genetic Polymorphism on New Zealand Black Chromosome 1 Is Associated with Abnormal Dendritic Cell Function Leading to Expansion of TH1, TH17 and T Follicular Helper (TFH) Cells
Background/Purpose: We have previously shown that B6 mice with an introgressed homozygous New Zealand Black chromosome (c) 1 interval (70 to 100 cM) develop high titres…Abstract Number: 2679 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
