In these mice, the transgenic Ab molecules, bound with predominant peptide (Ep) and with multiple self-peptides, selected more CD4+ T cells than Ab\/self-peptide complexes expressed in wild-type mice. The enhanced outcome of thymic selection was a result of impaired negative selection, rather than more efficient positive selection by an overall lowered abundance of self-derived Ab\/peptide complexes. Peripheral CD4+ T cells in the AbEpIi+ mice had memory phenotype, often followed by polyclonal activation of B cells. The AbEpIi+ mice preserved their good health and had a normal life span despite the profound number of activated CD4+ T cells and B cells in peripheral lymphoid organs, moderate hypergammaglobulinemia, and deposited complexes in the kidneys. We propose that CD4+ T cells positively selected due to low avidity for high abundant AbEp complex avoid negative selection on Ab molecules loaded with low abundant peptides and become self-reactive in the peripheral lymphoid organs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4049\/jimmunol.165.11.6099","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,4,22]],"date-time":"2014-04-22T02:44:50Z","timestamp":1398134690000},"page":"6099-6106","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Altered Selection of CD4+ T Cells by Class II MHC Bound with Dominant and Low Abundance Self-Peptides"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"165","author":[{"given":"Anna","family":"Gaszewska-Mastalarz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Molecular Medicine and Genetics, Medical College of Georgia , Augusta, GA 30912"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Pawel","family":"Muranski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Molecular Medicine and Genetics, Medical College of Georgia , Augusta, GA 30912"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bartosz","family":"Chmielowski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Molecular Medicine and Genetics, Medical College of Georgia , Augusta, GA 30912"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Piotr","family":"Kraj","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Molecular Medicine and Genetics, Medical College of Georgia , Augusta, GA 30912"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Leszek","family":"Ignatowicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Molecular Medicine and Genetics, Medical College of Georgia , Augusta, GA 30912"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2000,12,1]]},"reference":[{"first-page":"766","volume-title":"J.
