Abstract

T cells belong to a group of white blood cells called lymphocytes and play a large role in the immune response. An increased understanding of T cell immunity will provide new insights into the etiology of human autoimmune disease such as diabetes.

This volume reviews the latest developments and discusses the evolution of T cell immunity, thymic requirements, and how to prevent T cell-dependent autoimmunity.

  • Discusses new discoveries, approaches, and ideas in T cell immunity
  • Contributions from leading scholars and industry experts
  • Reference guide for researchers involved in molecular biology and related fields

PRAISE FOR THE SERIES: "Full of interest not only for the molecular biologist--for whom the numerous references will be invaluable--but will also appeal to a much wider circle of biologists, and in fact to all those who are concerned with the living cell."--British Medical Journal
