The Virus-Specific CD4+ T Cell Response During Acute Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis Virus Infection and into Long Term Memory: a Dissertation
CD4+ T cells play a central role in immunity. During virus infections, CD4+ T cells provide the necessary help for B cells to secrete anti-viral antibody and may act as effector cells themselves through the secretion of anti-viral cytokines such as IFN-γ and TNF-α. Recent studies in the lymphocytic...
