Continuous recruitment of naive T cells contributes to heterogeneity of antiviral CD8 T cells during persistent infection
Numerous microbes establish persistent infections, accompanied by antigen-specific CD8 T cell activation. Pathogen-specific T cells in chronically infected hosts are often phenotypically and functionally variable, as well as distinct from T cells responding to nonpersistent infections; this phenotyp...
