Der Prozess der Leberschaden-vermittelten Immunregulation tritt nur in CD8 T-Zellen auf, die ihr spezifisches Antigen in der Leber erkennen. Da die Eliminierung viraler Infektionen zwangsläufig mit Leberschaden einhergeht, liefert die vorliegende Arbeit Grund zur Annahme, dass eine bisher unbekannte negative Rückkopplungsschleife, durch Abschalten von CD8 T-Zellen, zur Gewebeprotektion und gleichzeitig zur Entwicklung einer chronischen Infektion in der Leber beiträgt.Our findings may reveal a negative regulatory feed-back loop with tissue-protective properties in the tolerogenic liver micro-environment where liver damage impairs further anti-viral CD8 T cell immunity – which in consequence would result in persistent infection. The findings ...
