Human CMV-specific vs IAV-specific CD8 T cells

We compared CD8 T cells specific for a CMV epitope (pp65495-503) and an influenza A virus (IAV) epitope (M158-66) of the same healthy adults and identified genes whose expression are altered in CMV-specific compared to IAV-specific TCM cells Transcriptional profiling of CMV-specific vs IAV-specific CD8 T cells from healthy human. Goal was to determine the differentially expressed genes between these two antigen-specific CD8 T cells. CMV-specific vs IAV-specific CD8 T cells. Biological replicates: 4 CMV-specific replicates, 4 IAV-specific replicates.
