A brief history of CD8 T cells

31 Oct 2007

Abstract excerpt

CD8 T cells comprise a powerful branch of the adaptive immune system, yet were not formally recognized until long after the discovery of antibody. CD8 T cells contribute to the eradication of intracellular infections and to the control of many chronic infections. There is tempered optimism that CD8 T cell memory elicited via vaccination may hold the key to manufacturing protective immunity against pathogens that...
