Impaired cytotoxic CD8+ T cell response in elderly COVID-19 patients

2020-08-24

Abstract excerpt

SARS-CoV-2 infection induces a T cell response that most likely contributes to virus control in COVID-19 patients, but may also induce immunopathology. Until now, the cytotoxic T cell response has not been very well characterized in COVID-19 patients. Here, we analyzed the differentiation and cytotoxic profile of T cells in 30 cases of mild COVID-19 during acute infection. SARS-CoV-2 infection induced a cytotoxic...
