Disruption of the homeostatic balance between autoaggressive (CD4 super(+)CD40 super(+)) and regulatory (CD4 super(+)CD25 super(+)FoxP3 super(+)) T cells promotes diabetes

Although regulatory T cells (Tregs) are well described, identifying autoaggressive effector T cells has proven more difficult. However, we identified CD4 super(10)CD40 super(+) (Th40) cells as being necessary and sufficient for diabetes in the NOD mouse model. Importantly, these cells are present in...
