The Role of the Inhibitory Ligand HVEM and Its Receptors CD160 and BTLA in the Regulation of Anti-retroviral T Cell Responses
Specific CD8+ T cells are crucial for the control of viruses. However, during many chronic viral infections these cells become dysfunctional. Immune checkpoint receptors, like PD-1 expressed on CD8+ T cells, contribute to this functional suppression during chronic infection. However, during the acut...
