Influenza infection results in local expansion of memory CD8(+) T cells with antigen non-specific phenotype and function...
...Published in Clinical & Experimental Immunology
Primary viral infections induce activation of CD8(+) T cells responsible for effective resistance. We sought to characterize the nature of the CD8(+) T cell expansion observed after primary viral infection with influenza. Infection of naive mice with different strains of influenza resulted in the rapid expansion of memory CD8(+) T cells exhibiting ...
