T cell aging: A review of the transcriptional changes determined from genome-wide analysis
Age carries a detrimental impact on T cell function. In the past decade, analyses of the genome-scale transcriptional changes of T cells during aging have yielded a large amount of data and provided a global view of gene expression changes in T cells ...

Memory T cells: strategies for optimizing tumor immunotherapy
Several studies have demonstrated that memory T cells including stem cell memory (Tscm) T cells and central memory (Tcm) T cells show superior persistence and antitumor immunity compared with effector memory T (Tem) cells and effector T (Teff) cells ...

Memory T Cells Discrepancies in COVID-19 Patients
The immune response implicated in Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pathogenesis remains to be fully understood. The present study aimed to clarify the alterations in CD4+ and CD8+ memory T cells’ compartments in SARS-CoV-2-infected patients, with an ...

Apoptotic epitope-specific CD8+ T cells and interferon signaling intersect in chronic hepatitis C virus infection [PDF]
CD8(+) T cells specific to caspase-cleaved antigens derived from apoptotic T cells represent a principal player in chronic immune activation (CIA). Here, we found that both apoptotic epitope (AE)-specific and hepatitis C virus (HCV)-specific CD8(+) T ...

Effector and memory CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in the chronic infection process.
T cell memory in comparison with B cell memory is not well understood. This review focuses on CD8+ and CD4+ memory T cells. In this article we try to define memory cells and also present models of memory T cells formation. We would also like to delineate

C-Myc regulation by costimulatory signals modulates the generation of CD8+ memory T cells during viral infection [PDF]
The signalling mechanisms of costimulation in the development of memory T cells remain to be clarified. Here, we show that the transcription factor c-Myc in CD8+ T cells is controlled by costimulatory molecules, which modulates the development of memory ...
