Human virus‐specific CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells: diversity specialists
1 Jun 2006
Abstract excerpt
Human viruses elicit functionally highly diverse CD8+ T-cell responses. This variation, which manifests in the memory or latency stage, includes differences in expansion requirements, migratory properties, homeostatic maintenance mechanisms, and constitutive effector properties, and it may reflect specific adaptations of the human immune system to challenges posed by individual pathogens.
