Fingolimod retains cytolytic T cells and limits T follicular helper cell infection in lymphoid sites of SIV persistence.

Lymph nodes (LN) and their resident T follicular helper CD4+ T cells (Tfh) are a critical site for HIV replication and persistence. Therefore, optimizing antiviral activity in lymphoid tissues will be needed to reduce or eliminate the HIV reservoir. In this study, we retained effector immune cells i...
