Abstract excerpt
Salmonella-derived epitopes are presented on MHC molecules by antigen-presenting cells, and both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells participate in protective immunity to Salmonella. Therefore, mechanisms that allow Salmonella to escape specific immune recognition are likely to have evolved in this bacterial p...
