Abstract

While promiscuous expression of tissue-specific antigens (TSAs) in the thymus is essential for self-tolerance, immunologically relevant TSA expression may also occur in the secondary lymphoid organs. A new study links the transcriptional regulator Deaf1 with altered TSA expression in the secondary lymphoid organs and autoimmune diabetes.
