...Quite possibly T-cell activation needs to be finely tuned to yield a tolerization state, associated with protective action (103, 104), rather than an aggressive (auto)-immune response....

...Induction of mucosal tolerance to brain antigens after middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was associated with improved outcome and a reduction in infarct volume in the hours to days after stroke onset (92–95), but this was only beneficial up to a month (96)....

...By inducing systemic inflammation in the peri-infarct period, however, there appears to be a fundamental change in how the immune system responds to the CNS antigens exposed in injured brain; a detrimental autoimmune response emerges, and this autoimmune response is associated with worse functional outcome 1 month after middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) [5,6]....

...Using the paradigm of mucosal tolerance, however, we demonstrated that induction of a TREG response to the brain antigen myelin basic protein (MBP) prior to cerebral ischemia could prevent development of the deleterious autoimmune response to this antigen and improve outcome (as assessed 1 month after MCAO)[6] There are, however, documented concerns about the long term consequences of mucosal tolerance/immune deviation therapy [7-9]....
