Characterization of the humoral immune response to the beta-cell antigens insulin and glutamic acid decarboxylase in preclinical and clinical type 1 diabetes
Abstract The characteristics of humoral immunity have been proposed to reflect the bias between two T helper (Th) lymphocyte subsets: Th1 cells, which activate cell-mediated immunity, and Th2 cells, which mediate humoral immunity. The present study aimed to characterize the humoral immunity to beta...
