IL-4 depletion enhances host resistance and passive IgA protection against tuberculosis infection in BALB/c mice.

abstract：:Prior to acquiring a memory phenotype, antigen-activated CD8(+) T cells need to expand and then undergo a contraction phase. Utilizing two different antigenic stimuli, we provide evidence that the tumor necrosis factor receptors OX40 and CD30 integrate synergistic signals during the expansion phase to help maintain CD...
