The same findings also support experimental treatment strategies for autoimmune diseases, in which the immune system attacks the body, because stimulating the action of PD-1, as opposed to restricting it, can potentially block an overactive immune response.

Key Points: 
  • The same findings also support experimental treatment strategies for autoimmune diseases, in which the immune system attacks the body, because stimulating the action of PD-1, as opposed to restricting it, can potentially block an overactive immune response.
  • The study results revolve around the body's immune system, which is primed to attack virally infected and cancerous cells while leaving normal cells alone.
  • The immune system recognizes tumors as abnormal, but cancer cells can hijack checkpoints to turn off immune responses.
  • At the same time, PD-1 signaling is slowed in autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and type 1 diabetes, such that the action of unchecked immune cells creates inflammation that can damage tissues.
