T cell self-reactivity forms a cytokine milieu for spontaneous development of IL-17(+) Th cells that cause autoimmune arthritis

This report shows that highly self-reactive T cells produced in mice as a result of genetically altered thymic T cell selection spontaneously differentiate into interleukin (IL)-17–secreting CD4(+) helper T (Th) cells (Th17 cells), which mediate an autoimmune arthritis that clinically and immunologi...
