T cell immunity is a key component of the adaptive immune response against pathogens and virus-infected cells
Sekine et al. provide a functional and phenotypic map of SARS-CoV-2-specific T cells across the full spectrum of exposure, infection, and COVID-19 severity. They observe that SARS-CoV-2 elicits bro...
T cell immunity may be critical for long-term protection by COVID-19 vaccines
Once they have completed their development in the thymus, T cells enter the bloodstream and are carried by the circulation. On reaching a peripheral lymphoid organ they leave the blood again to mig...

Science's COVID-19 reporting is supported by the Pulitzer Center. The more than 100 COVID-19 vaccines in development mainly focus on another immune response: antibodies. These proteins are made by B cells and ideally latch onto SARS-CoV-2 and prevent it from entering cells. T cells, in contrast, thwart infections in two different ways. Helper T cells spur B cells and other immune defenders into action, whereas killer T cells target and destroy infected cells. The severity of disease can depend on the strength of these T cell responses. ...
Immunity publishes peer-reviewed papers that report the most important advances in immunology research.
Quizlet으로 학습하고 What is cell-mediated immunity? what is humoral immunity?, what are the two types of T cells? what are the subtypes of helper t cells? what is the main function of Th1 cells? and Th2...
Our understanding of T cell responses in COVID-19 and vaccination is incomplete. Gao et al. examine SARS-CoV-2-specific T cell responses to infection and vaccination, revealing disparate kinetics b...
