The role of posttranslational modifications in generating neo-epitopes that bind to rheumatoid arthritis-associated HLA-DR alleles and promote autoimmune T cell responses.
While antibodies to citrullinated proteins have become a diagnostic hallmark in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), we still do not understand how the autoimmune T cell response is influenced by these citrullinated proteins. To investigate the role of citrullinated antigens in HLA-DR1- and DR4-restricted T c...
