Commensal bacteria education history calibrates the naivety and activation threshold of adaptive antiviral immune system by Baohua Li, Zhou Sha, Li Mou, Feng Zhang, Lifeng Jia, Yan Zhu, Yan Guo, Guohong Deng, Haibo Wu, Hong Wei, Yuzhang Wu, Lilin Ye, Changjiang Liu, Jian Li, Yanyan Zhang, Yanyan Zhang, Yanyan Zhang

“…Here, by employing the naive immune system of germ-free (GF) mice without a history of microbial exposure, we compared their adaptive immune responses with those of the conventional (Conv) mice upon new viral infection. Interestingly, the naive GF immune system showed robust T-cell responses, with more potent memory T cells established for long-term protection, even in the condition of primary lower T-cell levels for naive GF mice. …”
