AIRE

autoimmune regulator

AIRE (autoimmune regulator) is a transcriptional regulator central to thymic immune tolerance, where it promotes expression of tissue-restricted antigens that support deletion of autoreactive T cells.

Biological function

AIRE regulates transcriptional programs in thymic epithelial cells and helps expose developing T cells to tissue-restricted self-antigens. Authoritative NCBI and UniProt evidence supports its chromatin-associated role in central self-tolerance and negative selection of autoreactive T cells.

Research context

AIRE is studied in central tolerance, thymic epithelial-cell biology, tissue-restricted antigen expression and mechanisms of autoimmune susceptibility. Catalogue association does not imply that every reagent is validated for every immune-model application.
