T-cell-specific mTOR deletion in mice ameliorated CD4+ T-cell survival in lethal sepsis induced by severe invasive candidiasis

The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway can mediate T-cell survival; however, the role of this pathway in T-cell survival during fungal sepsis is unclear. Here, we investigated the role of the mTOR pathway in CD4+ T-cell survival in a mouse model of rapidly progressive lethal sepsis induced...
