Dendritic cell-mediated responses to secreted <i>Cryptosporidium</i> effectors are required for parasite-specific CD8 <sup>+</sup> T cell responses

2023-08-18

Abstract excerpt

Cryptosporidium causes debilitating diarrheal disease in patients with primary and acquired defects in T cell function. However, it has been a challenge to understand how this infection generates T cell responses and how they mediate parasite control. Here, Cryptosporidium was engineered to express a parasite effector protein (MEDLE-2) that contains the MHC-I restricted SIINFEKL epitope which is recognized by TCR...
