The Notch signaling pathway is a master regulator of CD8+ T cell exhaustion and differentiation during chronic infection
During chronic infection, the persistence of antigen and inflammation leads to the differentiation of CD8+ T cells into an exhausted state characterised by expression of inhibitory receptors (IRs) and the progressive loss of T cell functions. Among the different subsets of exhausted CD8+ T (Tex) cells, Tex progenitors...
