A method for isolating a TABM capable of suppressing an autoimmune response characteristic of a human autoimmune disease, said method comprising culturing T-cells which have been exposed to an antigen to which patients with said disease produce an autoimmune response, to stimulate TABM production by said T-cells, isolating from said culture cells or their supernatant material capable of binding to said antigen to produce an antigen-binding fraction, and isolating from said antigen-binding fraction a sub-fraction capable of delaying the onset or alleviating symptoms of said autoimmune disease. |
