Unraveling the role of γδ T cells in the pathogenesis of an oncogenic avian herpesvirus
2023-12-06
Abstract excerpt
Marek’s disease virus (MDV) is an oncogenic alphaherpesvirus that causes deadly T cell lymphomas in chickens. MDV is highly cell associated which allows the virus to evade antibody-mediated virus neutralization. Therefore, T cell-mediated immune responses are thought to be crucial for combating this deadly pathogen. In chickens, gamma delta (γδ) T cells represent a major population with up to 50% of all peripheral...
