 Peripheral tolerance of CD8 T lymphocytes Redmond WL; Sherman LAImmunity  2005[Mar]; 22 (3): 275-84Whereas high-avidity recognition of peptide-MHC complexes by developing T cells  in the thymus results in deletion and promotes self-tolerance, such recognition  by mature T cells in the periphery results in activation and clonal expansion.  This dichotomy represents the basis of a dilemma that has stumped immunologists  for many years, how are self-specific T cells tolerized in the periphery? There  appear to be two important criteria used to achieve this goal. The first is that  in the absence of inflammatory pathogens, tolerance is promoted when T cells  recognize antigen presented by quiescent dendritic cells (DCs) expressing low  levels of costimulatory molecules. A second critical factor that defines "self"  and drives tolerance through deletion, anergy, or suppression is the persistence  of antigen.|Antigen Presentation/immunology[MESH]|CD8-Positive T-Lymphocytes/*immunology[MESH]|Dendritic Cells/immunology[MESH]|Models, Immunological[MESH]|Self Tolerance/*immunology[MESH]
