Abstract
Our investigations of antigens for pathogenic T cells in autoimmune diabetes led to the discovery of hybrid insulin peptides as T cell epitopes. T cells reactive to hybrid insulin peptides can be found at high frequency in the nonobese diabetic mouse model of type 1 diabetes and are also present in human patients. Hybrid insulin peptides can also be administered to mice in a tolerogenic form, thereby suppressing the autoimmune response.
