Tolerance induction to nonself antigens in the periphery. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of tolerance induction to nonself antigen. Tolerance induction in response to nonself antigens. Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate, or extent of tolerance induction to nonself antigen. Tolerance induction to nonself antigens in the central lymphoid organs. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate, or extent of tolerance induction to nonself antigen. An immune response based on directed amplification of specific receptors for antigen produced through a somatic diversification process that includes somatic recombination of germline gene segments encoding immunoglobulin superfamily domains, and allowing for enhanced responses upon subsequent exposures to the same antigen (immunological memory). Recombined receptors for antigen encoded by immunoglobulin superfamily domains include T cell receptors and immunoglobulins (antibodies). An example of this is the adaptive immune response found in Mus musculus. 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 taking place in the mucosal tissues. 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.
