Epstein-Barr virus offers an ideal opportunity to follow the human T-cell response to a virus infection over time from its acute primary phase, as seen in infectious mononucleosis patients, into the memory phase that accompanies life-long virus persistence. Here we review recent evidence on the development and maturation of cytotoxic T-cell memory using this viral system.
爱泼斯坦-巴尔病毒提供了一个理想的契机,可用于追踪人类T细胞对病毒感染的反应随时间的变化,从其急性初始阶段(如传染性单核细胞增多症患者所见),直至伴随病毒终身持续存在的记忆阶段。在此,我们回顾了利用该病毒系统在细胞毒性T细胞记忆的发育和成熟方面的最新证据。
