Interleukin-12 as a Therapeutic Target of Th1-mediated Autoimmune Diseases
초록
In the past it was thought that autoimmunity is mediated by antibodies and immune complexes. It has now become clear that many diseases, especially tissue specific, are T cell mediated or at least T cell dependent. The pathogenesis of cell-mediated autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, uveitis, diabetes, arthritis, and others, is thought to be in a large measure driven by interferon-gamma-producing antigen-specific T cells polarized toward the Th1 phenotype.
