A Minimum Epitope Overlap between Infections Strongly Narrows the Emerging T Cell Repertoire
Many infections are caused by pathogens that are similar, but not identical, to previously encountered viruses, bacteria, or vaccines.In such re-infections, pathogens introduce known antigens, which are recognized by memory T cells and new antigens that activate naive T cells.How preexisting memory T cells impact BLONDE SHAMPOO the repertoire of T
