The impact of variation in the number of CD8(+) T-cell precursors on the outcome of virus infection.

We investigated the role of varying the initial number of naive antiviral CTL precursors on the dynamics of LCMV-DOCILE infection. C57BL/6 mice, exhibiting LCMV-specific CTLp frequencies of about 50, are protected against virus persistence over a range of infectious doses up to 10(4) pfu. With 10-fo...
