An extrafollicular pathway for the generation of effector CD8+ T cells driven by the proinflammatory cytokine, IL-12
The proinflammatory cytokine IL-12 drives the generation of terminally differentiated KLRG1+ effector CD8+ T cells. Using a Toxoplasma vaccination model, we delineate the sequence of events that naïve CD8+ T cells undergo to become terminal effectors and the differentiation steps controlled by IL-12...
