Abstract excerpt
Herpes simplex virus (HSV)-specific CD8+ CTL cloned from individuals infected with HSV-2 efficiently lyse HSV-infected EBV-transformed B lymphoblastoid cells; however, these same CTL fail to lyse infected dermal fibroblasts. By 3 h after infection (early), class I MHC expression is reduced to les...
