Usp18 driven enforced viral replication in dendritic cells contributes to break of immunological tolerance in autoimmune diabetes.
Infection with viruses carrying cross-reactive antigens is associated with break of immunological tolerance and induction of autoimmune disease. Dendritic cells play an important role in this process. However, it remains unclear why autoimmune-tolerance is broken during virus infection, but usually...
