Abstract
To understand the adaptations of costimulatory molecules through mammalian evolution, Forni et al. (Forni et al., 2013) studied evolutionary selection in key costimulatory genes. Their results, presented in this issue of Immunity, suggest that the risk of autoimmmunity is balanced against efficacy of the anti-pathogen immune response.Entities:
