Abstract excerpt
Studies in humans have provided evidence that CD8(+) T cells exhibit distinct phenotypical and functional properties dependent on virus specificity. It is not known how these T-cell phenotypes develop over the course of infection. Dynamics and properties of T cells specific for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in HIV infection were investigated in relation to...
