In vivo identification and characterization of CD4⁺ cytotoxic T cells induced by virulent Brucella abortus infection.

CD4(+) T cells display a variety of helper functions necessary for an efficient adaptive immune response against bacterial invaders. This work reports the in vivo identification and characterization of murine cytotoxic CD4(+) T cells (CD4(+) CTL) during Brucella abortus infection. These CD4(+) CTLs...
