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
The immunopathogenesis of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), and the role of T cells in the onset and maintenance of this disease, are still unclear. Since T cells expand clonally after stimulation by an antigen, it is important to analyze the behavior of T cells at a clonal level. We have established rece
