## Abstract Survival of antigen‐specific CD8^+^ T cells in peripheral lymphoid organs during viral infection is known to be dependent predominantly on IL‐7 and IL‐15. However, little is known about a possible influence of tissue environmental factors on this process. To address this question, we st
## Abstract To study the role of IL‐12 as a third signal for T‐cell activation and differentiation __in vivo__, direct IL‐12 signaling to CD8^+^ T cells was analyzed in bacterial and viral infections using the P14 T‐cell adoptive transfer model with CD8^+^ T cells that lack the IL‐12 receptor. Resu
