CD4 + and CD8 + T cells are required to prevent SARS-CoV-2 persistence in the nasal compartment
23 Aug 2024
Abstract excerpt
SARS-CoV-2 infection induces the generation of virus-specific CD4 + and CD8 + effector and memory T cells. However, the contribution of T cells in controlling SARS-CoV-2 during infection is not well understood. Following infection of C57BL/6 mice, SARS-CoV-2–specific CD4 + and CD8 + T cells are recruited to the respiratory tract, and a vast proportion secrete the cytotoxic molecule granzyme B. Using depleting...
