ABSTRACT Introduction Rocky Mountain spotted fever (RMSF), a rapidly progressing febrile disease caused by the bacterium Rickettsia rickettsii, is the deadliest tick‐borne disease in the world. Human infection initially results in non‐specific symptoms and, if untreated, can result in death in up to 35% of cases.

CD8+ T cells against extracellular pathogens: more than just a cytotoxic cell
CD8+ T cells can induce immunopathology or disease tolerance and resistance in infections caused by extracellular pathogens. The secretion of IFNγ by CD8+ T cells can collaborate with IL‐17 for the elimination of extracellular pathogens. In addition, CD8+ T cells can restrict immunopathology through the elimination of APCs.
