Data shows that defining the magnitude and kinetics of an Ag-specific CD8 T-cell response requires distinguishing pathogen-induced effector and memory CD8 T cells from Tvm cells to improve the resolution of studies understanding CD8 T cells. Read more: …
Accurate enumeration of Ag-specific and virtual memory CD8 T cells are important to get a true sense of protective CD8 T cell response generated against infections and vaccination strategies. Excited to tell you more in our recent publication in @jimm…
Researchers using mice found that virtual memory CD8 T cells can mimic pathogen-specific responses, making it tricky to track real infection-fighting cells. These lookalikes may inflate estimates of immune response strength. academic.oup.com/jimmunol…
