摘要: The model of experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) in mice and rats is described. EAU targets immunologically privileged retinal antigens serves as a humans well for autoimmunity more general sense. well-characterized, robust, reproducible that easily followed quantitated. It inducible with synthetic peptides derived from autoantigens commonly available strains mice. ability to induce various gene-manipulated, including HLA-transgenic, mouse makes the suitable study basic mechanisms clinically relevant interventions.
