1955 (MCMLV) was a common year starting on Saturday (dominical letter B) of the Gregorian calendar, the 1955th year of the Common Era (CE) and Anno Domini (AD) designations, the 955th year of the 2nd millennium, the 55th year of the 20th century, and the 6th year of the 1950s decade.
We used persistent murine CMV (MCMV) infection to dissect the impact of CD4 + T cells on virus-specific CD8 + T cells, distinguishing between increased viral load in the absence of CD4 + T cells and CD4 + T-cell-mediated helper mechanisms.requencies of M45- and M38-specific CD8 + T cells were not reduced in MCMV-infected IL-21R â/â in comparison with WT mice (Fig. 4A), making it unlikely that CD4 + T cells support CD8 + T-cell responses by IL-21 during MCMV infection, unlike in murine LCMV or human HIV-1 infection.
