GDP-l-fucose synthase is an autoantigen recognized by cerebrospinal fluid–infiltrating CD4+ T cells from HLA-DRB3* patients with multiple sclerosis. Move over myelin Although it is well established that autoreactive lymphocytes induce demyelination in multiple sclerosis, the exact antigenic targets that initiate disease are undefined. Planas et al. studied CD4+ T cells from the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with multiple sclerosis. One CD4+ T cell clone was reactive to the human enzyme GDP-l…

- Biology, MedicineThe Journal of experimental medicine
- 1995
Six T cell clones specific for pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC)-E2 peptides from four different patients with primary biliary cirrhosis are established using 33 different peptides of 17-20 amino acid residues corresponding to human PDC-E2 as stimulating antigens, demonstrating the presence of molecular mimicry at the T cell clonal level in human autoimmune diseases.

Two of five in vivo-expanded and likely disease-relevant, cross-reactive cerebrospinal fluid-infiltrating T cell clones use multiple disease- associated HLA class II molecules as restriction elements, facilitating T cell activation and providing one explanation how a disease-associated HLA haplotype could be linked to a CD4+ T cell-mediated autoimmune disease.

Comparison of the three major HLA-DBR3 alleles suggests that they were derived from one another by recombination events that scrambled the four major peptide-binding pockets at peptide positions 1, 4, 6, and 9 but left virtually no polymorphisms elsewhere in the molecules.
