Funded Activity Summary

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) and other autoimmune diseases results from misdirected immune responses that destroy normal body tissues. The ultimate goal of therapeutic strategies is to remove or inactivate the immune cells that attack normal tissues, while leaving other immune cells, for example, those required for protection from infectious diseases and tumours, unaffected. Here we propose to test a new way of turning off inappropriate immune reactions.
