Regulation of T cell migration during viral infection: role of adhesion molecules and chemokines
2003
Abstract T cell mediated immunity and in particular CD8+ T cells are pivotal for the control of most viral infections. T cells exclusively exert their antiviral effect through close cellular interaction with relevant virus-infected target cells in vivo. It is therefore imperative that efficient mechanisms exist, which will rapidly direct newly generated effector T cells to sites of viral replication. In the present report we have reviewed our present knowledge concerning the molecular interactions, which are important in targeting of effector CD8+ T cells to sites of viral infection.
