immune system
• impaired cytotoxic CD8+ T cell differentiation following viral infection
• following viral infection, differentiation is skewed exclusively toward the Type 17 fate
|
• defect in accumulation of CD8+ T cells following viral infection
|
• deficiency in memory-phenotype CD8+ T cells
|
• CD8+ T cells have a severe defect in cytotoxic gene expression in response to viral peptide stimulation even when cellularity is normalized
|
• increase in IL17 expression in CD8+ T cells in response to stimulation with viral derived peptides
|
• persistent high titers of lymphocyte choriomeningitis virus
• progressive weight loss, not seen in controls, begins about 1 week after infection and is accompanied by extensive organ pathology and excessive neutrophil response
• depletion of CD8+ T cells prevents viral induced wasting, neutrophilia, and organ pathology
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• increase in IL17 expression in CD8+ T cells in response to stimulation with viral derived peptides
|
