Adenoviral vectors persist in vivo and maintain activated CD8+ T cells: implications for their use as vaccines.

CD8(+) T cell-numbers rapidly expand and then contract after exposure to their cognate antigen. Here we show that the sustained frequencies of transgene product-specific CD8(+) T cells elicited by replication-defective adenovirus vectors are linked to persistence of low levels of transcriptionally a...
