Antigen and G-Protein Coupled Receptor signaling differentially control CD8 T cell motility immediately before and after virus clearance in a primary infection
Abstract:17 In mice, experimental influenza virus infection stimulates CD8 T cell infiltration of the airways.18 Virus is cleared by day 9, and between days 8 and 9 there is an abrupt change in CD8 T cell 19 motility behavior transitioning from low velocity and high confinement on day 8, to high velocity 20 with continued confinement on day 9. We hypothesized that it is loss of virus and/or antigen 21 signals in the context of high chemokine levels that drives the T cells into a rapid surveillance 22 mode. Virus infect… Show more
