Regulatory T cells modulate DNA vaccine immunogenicity at early time via functional CD4+T cells and antigen duration

The development of an effective vaccine against HIV has proved to be difficult. Many factors including natural regulatory T cells (Treg cells), can dampen the CD8 T cell immunogenicity. In this study, we aimed to understand how Treg cells control CD8+ T cell immune responses during DNA prime-boost i...
