Blockade1

  • Borrowed familiar targets make recall immune cells kill unrelated new immune cells

    Where this hypothesis actsAcquired familiar complexes on newly activated unfamiliar-specificity CD8 cells while recall cytotoxic cells are active

    What is proposedBlock recall-cell recognition of acquired familiar peptide–MHC complexes

    With whatNot stated in the record

    HowSelectively mask acquired familiar complexes on recipient unfamiliar-specificity cells while retaining established recall protection

    Possible resultPossible restoration of unfamiliar-cell post-contraction persistence and target-specific killing
