The importance of CD8+ T cells in immunity against Toxoplasma gondii is now well recognized. The mechanism by which these CD8+ T cells are able to confer this immunity is not yet understood. To examine the Ag specificity of this response, immune splenocytes from mice immunized with p30, a major surface parasite Ag, were evaluated for their ability to lyse peritoneal macrophages infected with three different...
