Structure and biology of self lipid antigens

Capa:Structure and biology of self lipid antigens

Autor(es): De Libero G,Mori L


Resumo: Self lipid antigens induce selection and expansion of autoreactive T cells which have a role in immunoregulation and disease pathogenesis. Here we review the important biological rules which determine lipid immunogenicity. The impact of lipid structure, synthesis, traffic, membrane distribution and CD1 loading are discussed.
