摘 要:Immunological memory represents the ability of specific immune cells to recall an encounter with a cognate *** results in an immediate response upon a second exposure to the same infectious ***,conventional memory T cells are generated after encountering specific foreign *** contrast,a group of innate memory T cells develops without initial exposure to foreign antigen that specifically binds to a cognate T cell receptor.1 These naturally occurring memory-like T cells,also known as“virtualmemory T cells,are generated under steady-state *** accumulate during aging in both humans and mice.2 By comparing the TCR repertoire of young and old mice,an early study identified age-dependent clonal expansion and age-related changes in CD8^(+) but not CD4^(+) T cells.3 Interestingly,more than 50%of CD62L^(hi)CD44^(hi) central memory T cells in the peripheral blood of aged naive mice have been suggested to represent virtual memory T cells based on their lower expression levels of CD49d.4 Infection studies in mice employing Listeria monocytogenes showed that both virtual memory T cells and conventional antigen-specific memory T cells were able to provide protection.5 However,in contrast to virtual memory T cells,conventional memory T cells produced fivefold higher levels of IFN-γupon short-term in vitro TCR stimulation.
