Skin CD4+ memory T cells exhibit combined cluster-mediated retention and equilibration with the circulation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Memory T cells are vital responders to skin inflammation, but cell localization and dynamics of exchange with the bloodstream are not clear. Here the authors use parabiosis and intravital microscopy to show that CD4+memory T cells equilibrate with the ...
