A process involving any mechanism for tolerance induction in B cells. A process involving any mechanism for tolerance induction in T cells. Tolerance induction dependent upon an immune response, typically a response by a mature T or B cell in the periphery resulting tolerance towards an antigen via induction of anergy, cellular deletion, or regulatory T cell activation. Tolerance induction directed at self antigens. Tolerance induction in the central lymphoid organs: the thymus and bone marrow. A process that directly activates any of the steps required for tolerance, a physiologic state in which the immune system does not react destructively against the components of an organism that harbors it or against antigens that are introduced to it. Any process contributing to lymphocyte anergy, a state of functional inactivation. Tolerance induction of natural killer cells. Any process specifically pertinent to the functioning of integrated living units: cells, tissues, organs, and organisms. A process is a collection of molecular events with a defined beginning and end. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate, or extent of tolerance induction. Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate, or extent of tolerance induction. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of tolerance induction. A process involving any mechanism for tolerance induction in macrophages. Any process involved in the development or functioning of the immune system, an organismal system for calibrated responses to potential internal or invasive threats.
