Rapid Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte Activation Occurs in the Draining
... HSV-1 (5), even though CTLs are thought to be armed after one cell division (16). One possible reason for this delay is the low precursor frequency in C57BL/6 mice which prevents detection earlier in the response when cell division begins. To overcome this limitation we used an in vivo CTL assay met ...

Infection of Autoreactive B Lymphocytes with EBV
... Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have an abnormally increased frequency of circulating EBV-infected B cells 12. This is not due to an increased uptake of virus by B cells but could be explained by the defective control of infected B cells by EBVspecific T cells 12. A similar defect is also pr ...
