Abstract excerpt
In the quest for susceptibility factors of inflammatory neuropathies, many genes implicated in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases have been investigated with negative or conflicting results. We studied, with a gene candidate approach, the CD1 system specialized in capturing and presenting glycolipids to antigen-specific T cells, and the SH2D2A gene encoding for a T-cell-specific adapter protein implicated in...
