KIR-HLA interactions extend human CD8+ T cell lifespan in vivo

BACKGROUND There is increasing evidence, in transgenic mice and in vitro, that inhibitory killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (iKIRs) can modulate T cell responses. Furthermore, we have previously shown that iKIRs are an important determinant of T cell–mediated control of chronic viral infecti...
