Characterization of the SARS-CoV-2-Specific T Cell Responses in Rheumatoid Arthritis Subjects Vaccinated for COVID-19 Protection. [PDF]
SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccination in rheumatoid arthritis leads to the development of CD4+ and CD8+ spike‐specific T cell memory, regardless of immunosuppressive therapies, and the number of vaccine injections. CD4−CD8− double‐negative (DN) T cells responded to SARS‐CoV‐2 peptide epitopes and differentiated into CD8+ cytotoxic T cells after stimulation ...
