Journal ArticleDOI

The TCF1-Bcl6 axis counteracts type I interferon to repress exhaustion and maintain T cell stemness.

TL;DR: Insight is provided into the requirements for persistence of T cell immune responses in the face of exhaustion and mechanisms by which effective T cell–mediated immunity may be enhanced during chronic infections and cancer are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Natural killer cell activation enhances immune pathology and promotes chronic infection by limiting CD8+ T-cell immunity

TL;DR: It is shown that NKG2D triggered regulatory NK cell functions, which were mediated by perforin, and limited T-cell responses, which led to rapid virus control and prevented chronic infection in lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus clone 13- and reduced viral load in DOCILE- infected animals.
Journal ArticleDOI

NK cells regulating T cell responses: mechanisms and outcome.

TL;DR: Emerging principles of how this regulation of natural killer cells influences the overall outcome of adaptive immunity in infection and disease are outlined.
