Peripheral self-reactivity regulates antigen-specific CD8 T-cell responses and cell division under physiological conditions

T-cell identity is established by the expression of a clonotypic T-cell receptor (TCR), generated by somatic rearrangement of TCRα and β genes. The properties of the TCR determine both the degree of self-reactivity and the repertoire of antigens that can be recognized. For CD8 T cells, the relations...
