Abstract
During oral tolerance cells communicate with each other to dampen the immune response, creating an agreeable environment for oral antigens. Even T cells directed against non-oral antigens are suppressed, generating a response known as the 'bystander effect'. Dendritic cells now emerge as mediators of this communication.
