Abstract excerpt
Murine collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) is a T cell-mediated disease which is induced by injection of type II collagen. Previous studies have shown that CD4+ cells which express particular V beta TCR genes are involved in the induction of arthritis in this model. In the present report we demonstr...
