Biased TCR gene usage in citrullinated Tenascin C specific T-cells in rheumatoid arthritis
Abstract We aimed to search for common features in the autoreactive T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), focusing on the newly identified candidate antigen citrullinated Tenascin C (cit-TNC). Mononuclear cells from peripheral blood or synovial fluid of eight R...
