Figure 1: Rapamycin enhances the number and quality of virus-specific memory CD8 T cells. Figure 2: Rapamycin treatment during T-cell expansion phase increases the number of memory precursors.

Figure 6: RSV-specific CD8+ T cells in BAL display a distinctive resident memory phenotype. Figure 7: Reduced expression of cytotoxicity and co-stimulatory markers by RSV-specific CD8+ T cells in ...

They found that CD8 T cells that accumulate in atherosclerotic plaques in aging mice are primarily memory T cells, both effector memory T cells and central memory T cells, with few naive T cells ...

Virtual memory CD8+ T cells (T VM) are a relatively recent discovery in humans. A new review discusses what is known about them from mouse models and their cellular equivalents in humans ...

A recent publication from the lab, spearheaded by technician Alexis Taber and appearing in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, takes a closer look at the relationship between memory ...

demonstrates a function of targeted centrosome inheritance during CD8 + T cell division for the generation of memory precursor cells. CD8 + T cells are a crucial component of adaptive immune ...

"We determined that antigen-presenting AMs present inhaled antigen to memory CD8 + T cells," says senior author of the study, Taro Kawai, "and that this resulted in a rapid expansion of antigen ...

Such memory cells are capable of a quick response to a future infection by the flu virus, thus providing enduring protective immunity. "We demonstrate that CD8+ T cells, responding to the same ...

Meanwhile, the adaptive system, consisting of T and B cells, responds more slowly, targeting specific antigens and generating long-lived memory cells to enable a quicker, stronger secondary response.
