Collagen epitope expression on B cells is sufficient to confer tolerance to collagen-induced arthritis

BACKGROUND: The mechanisms underlying tolerance induction and maintenance in autoimmune arthritis remain elusive. In a mouse model of rheumatoid arthritis, collagen type II (CII)-induced arthritis, we explore the contribution of B cells to antigen-specific tolerance. METHODS: To generate expression...
