Genetic and Small Molecule Disruption of the AID/RAD51 Axis Similarly Protects Nonobese Diabetic Mice from Type 1 Diabetes through Expansion of Regulatory B Lymphocytes
2 May 2017
Abstract excerpt
Abstract B lymphocytes play a key role in type 1 diabetes (T1D) development by serving as a subset of APCs preferentially supporting the expansion of autoreactive pathogenic T cells. As a result of their pathogenic importance, B lymphocyte–targeted therapies have received considerable interest as potential T1D interventions. Unfortunately, the B lymphocyte–directed T1D interventions tested to date failed to halt...
