Longitudinal transcriptional profiling of CD8 cells in response to infection and vaccination across tissues

To determine whether persistent antigen in AdNP immunized mice has any potential cell-intrinsic effects on the genetic program of lung TRM that result in their enhanced longevity, we compared the transcriptional profiles of influenza NP-specific lung TRM (CD8+ i.v. antibody- NP+ CD69+ CD103+), lung TRM that were CD69 single positive (CD8+ i.v. antibody- NP+ CD69+ CD103-) and splenic TEM (CD8+ CD62L- NP+) from mice either infected with x31 influenza or immunized with AdNP at 1-month (35 days post-infection (d.p.i.), x31 and AdNP) and 1-year (365 d.p.i., AdNP only) time points. Transcriptional profiling of 9 experimental groups with 2 samples per group.
