Tcf1+ cells are required to maintain the inflationary T cell pool upon MCMV infection
Upon infection with cytomegalovirus, CD8+ T cells undergo prolific expansion in a process known as memory inflation. Here the authors define a population of Tcf1 expressing cells within the inflationary pool that is critical in fuelling this process.
