Abstract
- Although regulatory T cells protect people from autoimmunity, two recent papers in Immunity ( Malchow et al., 2016; Kieback et al., 2016 ) demonstrate that these cells are also a crisis averted. Without the proper education in the thymus, these cells will turn on their host and cause autoimmunity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
