Homeostasis-Stimulated Proliferation Drives Naive T Cells to Differentiate Directly into Memory T Cells

The developmental requirements for immunological memory, a central feature of adaptive immune responses, is largely obscure. We show that as naive CD8 T cells undergo homeostasis-driven proliferation in lymphopenic mice in the absence of overt antigenic stimulation, they progressively acquire phenot...
