HVEM imprints memory potential on effector CD8 T cells required for protective mucosal immunity

P Desai, G Abboud, J Stanfield, PG Thomas… - The Journal of …, 2017 - journals.aai.org
Mucosal immunity to reinfection with a highly virulent virus requires the accumulation and
persistence of memory CD8 T cells at the site of primary infection. These cells may derive …

Deletion of the K1L Gene Results in a Vaccinia Virus That Is Less Pathogenic Due to Muted Innate Immune Responses, yet Still Elicits Protective Immunity

AG Bravo Cruz, A Han, EJ Roy, AB Guzmán… - Journal of …, 2017 - Am Soc Microbiol
All viruses strategically alter the antiviral immune response to their benefit. The vaccinia
