abstract：:We show that latently gammaherpesvirus-infected B cells are present in the thymus. This could result in a functional T-cell tolerance against certain viral epitopes. It is conceivable that also antigens from other viruses or pathogens may be conveyed to the thymus for their immune evasion. ...
