Differential expression of inhibitory receptor NKG2A distinguishes disease‐specific exhausted CD8+ T cells
Abstract Exhausted CD8+ T (Tex) cells are caused by persistent antigenic stimulation during chronic viral infection or tumorigenesis. Tex cells upregulate and sustain the expressions of multiple immune inhibitory receptors (IRs). Blocking IRs of Tex cells, exemplified by PD‐1, can partially restore...
