NK cell functions for regulation of T cell responses were evaluated during acute viral infections. In vivo depletion studies established that the presence of NK cells in murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV)-infected immunocompetent mice negatively affected CD4 and CD8 T cell IFN-+ expression, bromodeoxyuri
## Abstract The conclusive evidence supporting a role for NK cells in defense against viruses has been obtained under conditions of NK cell deficiencies prior to infections. NK cell proliferation can be induced during infections, but the advantages of resulting expansion have been unclear because N
## Abstract Natural killer (NK) and cytotoxic T (Tc) cells are prime effector populations in the antiviral response of the host. Tc cells are essential for recovery from many viral diseases but may also be responsible for immunopathology. The role of NK cells in recovery from viral infections is le
