Gene Therapy Induces Antigen-Specific Tolerance in Experimental Collagen-Induced Arthritis.
Here, we investigate induction of immunological tolerance by lentiviral based gene therapy in a mouse model of rheumatoid arthritis, collagen II-induced arthritis (CIA). Targeting the expression of the collagen type II (CII) to antigen presenting cells (APCs) induced antigen-specific tolerance, wher...
