ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed to a method of treating a T cell-mediated autoimmune disease in animals, including humans, by the oral or enteral administration of autoantigens, fragments of autoantigens, or analogs structurally related to those autoantigens, which are specific for the particular autoimmune disease. The method of the invention includes both prophylactic and therapeutic measures.
