Neonatal CD8 T-cell hierarchy is distinct from adults and is influenced by intrinsic T cell properties in respiratory syncytial virus infected mice.

Following respiratory syncytial virus infection of adult CB6F1 hybrid mice, a predictable CD8+ T cell epitope hierarchy is established with a strongly dominant response to a K(d)-restricted peptide (SYIGSINNI) from the M2 protein. The response to K(d)M2(82-90) is ∼5-fold higher than the response to...
