CD8+ tissue-resident memory T cells (TRM) in the upper respiratory tract (URT) limit viral replication after transmission and prevent spread to the lower respiratory tract (LRT), whereas LRT CD8+ TRM are important for limiting immunopath...

HLA-A*02:01–restricted PB1413+CD8+ T cells provide the broadest reported cross-reactive immunity against influenza A, B, and C viruses. Here, we investigated T cell receptor (TCR) clonotypic signatures within these universal A2/PB1413+CD...

CTLA-4 is an inhibitory receptor on T cells that limits immune activation by competing with the co-stimulatory receptor CD28 for binding to CD80 and CD86 on antigen-presenting cells. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) employ CTLA-4–mediated tran...
