Depletion of CD4+ and CD8+ cells eliminates immunologic memory of thyroiditogenicity in murine experimental autoimmune thyroiditis.

Experimental autoimmune thyroiditis (EAT) develops in genetically susceptible mice after immunization with mouse thyroglobulin (MTg), and is mediated by T cells, both CD4+ and CD8+, infiltrating the thyroid.
