The antiviral efficacy of simian immunodeficiency virus-specific CD8(+) T cells is unrelated to epitope specificity and is abrogated by viral escape

To control for the latter, we quantified epitope-specific CD8 + T cell populations in the spleen of LCMV-infected mice [16] and found that eight days after LCMV challenge, the
The relative number of CD8 T cells were analyzed by calculating the ratio between the numbers of CD8 T cells and Monoclonal B Clone (MBC) (T/NK cells: MBC ratio) as previously
The T cell VS was initially characterized as an actin-dependent polarization of viral proteins Gag and Env to the site of cell–cell contact on infected donor cells and the
It is possible that these seven animals failed to control viral replication because of the narrow TCR repertoire expressed by the GagCM9-specific CD8 + T cell population elicited
The purpose of this review is to summarize the evi- dence for a role of specific viral coinfections like human T cell lymphotrophic virus type 1 (HTLV-1), hepatitis B virus (HBV)
We then proceed to examine the effects of the crude extracts on the functionality of antigen-specific T cells by measuring the production of IL-2 (T-cell growth factor for
Here, we show that the coexpression of inhibitory receptors such as PD1, 2B4, CD160 and KLRG1 occurs in about half of HCV-specific CD8 + T cell responses and that it is linked to low
The curves of parasitemia observed in WT C57BL/6 or CD8 KO mice challenged with different parasite doses, strongly suggest that protective CD8 + T cells are important for mouse
