Autoimmunity and apoptosis--therapeutic implications.
Acquisition of a complex immune system during evolution provided organisms with the most effective defense mechanism against "foreign" or "non-self" invaders. This efficient protection against pathogens, however, has been achieved at the expense of a higher risk for "self"-directed reaction or autoimmunity. Establishment of self-tolerance and homeostasis in the immune system is regulated at dif...
متن کاملGPI-Anchored Fibromodulin as a Novel Target in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Implications
