Analysis of the antigen-specific T cell repertoire in T1D patients

The majority of human T cell antigens relevant to T1D have been defined using algorithms which predict high affinity peptide binding to MHC.   However, direct evidence showing that these antigens are presented to T cells by human islets and APCs in T1D patients has not been established for the vast majority of these peptides.  A […]
