Memory T cells play an important role in the resolution of secondary respiratory virus infections through the production of anti-viral cytokines and the lysis of infected cells. Within the lung airways, memory T cells form an initial line of defense against secondary virus challenge by limiting earl
Memory T cells can be broadly divided into central memory and effector memory subsets, which are endowed with different capacities to home to lymphoid or non-lymphoid tissues, to proliferate in response to antigen or cytokines and to perform effector functions. In the past few years progress has bee
