Expansion of cytotoxic tissue-resident CD8+ T cells and CCR6+CD161+ CD4+ T cells in the nasal mucosa following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination

Whether mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccines promote T cells within the nasal mucosa of vaccine recipients is not known. Here the authors show that after mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, antigen specific T cells can be measured in the nasal mucosa and that these T cells may be localised to respond to a subsequent v...
