6/8 liver function: peripheral immune tolerance Liver has various mechanisms for induction&maintenance of immune tolerance. Hepatic immunotolerance is associated w/ presence of dysfunctional T cells ... anergy & exhaustion, dysfunctional regulator
@brendan_49 I think visceral is far too broad. This is very liver specific because the liver plays such an important role in innate immunity. https://t.co/oEBgiOaAlR https://t.co/suSFKdS1fQ
@brendan_49 @jeromeleonard5 For a few reasons. Yes, the liver is an immune hub, and responsible for fighting pathogens. The immune system in the liver is largely innate hence the failure of adaptive immune targeting drugs. https://t.co/5RVPdCn4aP https:
