CD4+ T cell fate decisions are stochastic, precede cell division, depend on GITR co-stimulation, and are associated with uropodium development

During an immune response, naive CD4+ T cells proliferate and generate a range of effector, memory and regulatory T cell subsets, but how these processes are co-ordinated remains unclear. A traditional model suggests that memory cells use mitochondrial respiration and are survivors from a pool of previously proliferating and glycolytic,... Show more
