Abstract excerpt
Experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) can be induced in susceptible mice by immunization with retinal antigens. The response to uveitogens is genetically restricted. B10RIII and B10A mouse are highly susceptible to IRBP-induced uveitis, whereas B6 mouse is less susceptible. Immunization to B6 mouse with IRBP only induced very mild disease with low incidence. However, the susceptibility can be enhanced by...
