What are the mechanisms for periperal tolerance? ==Clonal anergy, suppression, immunological ignorance 11. What mediates suppression? Treg cellsWhat mediates suppression?== Treg cells 12. What causes anergy? Lack of co-stimulationWhat causes anergy?== Lack of co-stimulation 13. Where does ignorance occur? Immune privileged sitesWhere does ignorance occur?== Immune privileged sites 14. What drives peripheral B cell tolerance? T cellsWhat drives peripheral B cell tolerance?== T cells 15. How does T cell neglect cause B cell anergy?== No Th signals means no TCR for costimulatory signals 16.
