Abstract excerpt
Peripheral tolerance mechanisms limit autoimmunity by constitutively eliminating self-reactive CD8+ T cells from the periphery in a process called deletion. Previous work has demonstrated that this deletion process is mediated by BIM-dependent apoptotic death due to transcriptional induction of the Bim gene. Currently, the transcriptional pathways responsible for Bim induction during peripheral deletion remain...
