In murine acute viral myocarditis, natural killer (NK) cells infiltrate the heart first, followed by activated T-cells, which play an important role in the pathogenesis of the myocardial damage. Because of their multipotential effects, cytokines are thought to play a role in the induction and develo
Cell-mediated autoimmunity has been strongly implicated in the pathogenesis of the myocardial cell damage involved in viral myocarditis. Using a murine model of acute myocarditis caused by Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3), perforin-expressing killer cells have been shown to infiltrate the heart, and interce
