Gluten-specific CD4+ T Cell (N/A)

Target
N/A
Molecular classification
T cell receptor, CD4+ T lymphocyte, Immune cell
01

Overview

Gluten-specific CD4+ T cells are essential mediators of celiac disease pathogenesis due to their unique ability to recognize deamidated dietary antigens presented by specific MHC class II alleles. Their highly restricted antigen specificity, distinctive phenotype upon activation/exposure to gluten, key role in orchestrating both humoral autoimmunity and local inflammation make them critical targets for diagnostic assays as well as emerging therapeutic strategies focused on restoring tolerance or selectively modulating pathogenic immunity in celiac disease patients.
