Therapeutic aspects of tolerance.
Waldmann H., Cobbold SP., Fairchild P., Adams E.
The immune system is naturally unresponsive to 'self' antigens. Improved knowledge of mechanisms underlying self tolerance is giving rise to a new generation of immunosuppressive agents, that can exploit these mechanisms and so reduce the nature and level of medication that needs to be given long-term to control diseases where the immune system does harm.
