Quantifying memory CD8 T cell-mediated immune pressure on influenza A virus infection <i>in vivo</i>
2020-01-27
Abstract excerpt
The conservation of T cell epitopes in human influenza A virus has prompted the development of T cell-inducing influenza vaccines. However, the selection pressure mediated by memory CD8 T cells upon influenza virus has not been directly measured. Using a droplet digital PCR technique to distinguish wild-type and an epitope-mutant PR8 influenza viruses in vivo , this study quantifies the viral replicative fitness...
