The Role of M. leprae Hsp65 Protein and Peptides in the Pathogenesis of Uveitis
Experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) is a well established model for immune-mediated organ-specific disease. Our group has recently shown that the M. leprae Hsp65 aggravated the uveitis in mice; in the present study, we evaluated the action of M. leprae K409A mutant protein and the synthetic pepti...
