IDENTIFYING SYNTHETIC LIGANDS THAT BIND T-CELLS FROM PATIENTS HAVING AN AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE

摘要

The present invention provides for the identification of autoreactive T cell populations from individuals having autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis and EAE. Peptoids recognized by autoreactive T cells can be used to identify various types of autoimmune disease, and can also be used to target therapies against such populations.
