Qa-1-Restricted CD8+ T Cells Can Compensate for the Absence of Conventional T Cells during Viral Infection

Summary: The role of non-classical T cells during viral infection remains poorly understood. Using the well-established murine model of CMV infection (MCMV) and mice deficient in MHC class Ia molecules, we found that non-classical CD8+ T cells robustly expand after MCMV challenge, become highly acti...
