Cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL or CD8) responses are a major branch of the immune system involved in controlling viral infections. Murine models have shown that the development of effective and sustained CD8 cell responses requires CD4 T cell help. However, the precise mechanism in which CD4 cells prov

he specificity of T-cell recognition events is essential for protective immune responses and in order to avoid autoimmunity. Binding of the T-cell receptor (TCR) to peptide bound to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules is an early step for specific T-cell activation. This engagement lead
