Fas-mediated death and sensory adaptation limit the pathogenic potential of autoreactive T cells after strong antigenic stimulation

The ability of autoreactive T cells to induce autoimmune pathology is dependent on their ability to respond to the level of autoantigen presented in the target organ. Emerging evidence suggests that at the population level, T cell sensitivity for self can be reduced by deletion of those cells bearin...
