CD8+ T-cell selection, function, and death in the primary immune response in vivo

TL;DR: Comparison of the clonal composition of primary and memory responses in vivo shows that the clones that dominate the primary response are relatively heavily culled during the downregulation of thePrimary response and the establishment of T-cell memory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid death of adoptively transferred T cells in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome

TL;DR: It is shown that cells bearing the Gag-specific T-cell receptors were rapidly eliminated within hours of infusion through apoptosis, suggesting that the failure of adoptively transferred HIV-specific CTL to reduce virus load in AIDS may be due to rapid apoptosis of the infused cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cross-reactive cytotoxic T lymphocytes against a HIV-1 p24 epitope in slow progressors with B*57.

TL;DR: B*5701+ and B5703+ donors demonstrate broad functional cross-reactivity to both common and rare variants of a dominant p24 epitope, which could be relevant to the association of B*57 alleles with slow progression to AIDS.
