Aging boosts antiviral CD8+T cell memory through improved engagement of diversified recall response determinants.

Aging boosts antiviral CD8+T cell memory through improved engagement of diversified recall response determinants.

The determinants of protective CD8+ memory T cell (CD8+TM) immunity remain incompletely defined and may in fact constitute an evolving agency as aging CD8+TM progressively acquire enhanced rather than impaired recall capacities. Here, we show that old as compared to young antiviral CD8+TM more effec...
