Journal ArticleDOI

Twins: mirrors of the immune system.

TL;DR: Important results from twin studies are reviewed and their potential value in multifactorial, immune-mediated diseases is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predominant and stable T cell responses to regions of myelin basic protein can be detected in individual patients with multiple sclerosis.

TL;DR: To which extent the T cell response to MBP is heterogeneous in single subjects in terms of preferentially recognized regions of the molecule, major histocompatibility complex (MHC) restriction, and stability over time is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

The immune response to Mycobacterial 70-kDa heat shock proteins frequently involves autoreactive T cells and is quantitatively disregulated in multiple sclerosis

TL;DR: Mapping experiments showing that the response to conserved epitopes of HSP70 is a frequent event in each of the three conditions studied, often leading to the cross-recognition of microbial and human sequences implicate the 70-kDa heat shock proteins in multiple sclerosis.
