304. What is Tolerization?

Dr. Michael Yeaman and Dr. Terry Smith joined Krissy Dilger of SRNA for an “ABCs of NMOSD” podcast titled “What is Tolerization?" The experts began by giving an overview of immune detection and protection. They explained how immune tolerance is established. The experts provided information on how immune tolerance could be lost during autoimmune disease. Finally, they discussed how immune tolerance can be restored and how these corrections might be applied to treatments and cures for NMOSD and MOGAD. There are visual slides that accompany this episode. The visual presentation can be found at https://youtu.be/PtYzqrNi6pg
