CD301b+ dendritic cells stimulate tissue-resident memory CD8+ T cells to protect against genital HSV-2
Tissue-resident memory T cells are needed for optimal antiviral immunity at mucosal surfaces. Here the authors provide a mechanism for this protection, showing that vaginal CD301b+ DC-dependent IFN-γ production by CD8+ tissue-resident memory T cells, not circulating T cells, is central to HSV-2 resi...
