Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the role of CD8 T cells in the protection against lethal COVID-19 in mice, revealing they are not essential for the intrinsic resistance in female mice or susceptibility in male mice to the virus.
- Mice vaccinated with a specific mRNA-LNP vaccine show protection from severe outcomes of SARS-CoV-2, with CD8 T cells being important for survival when antibodies are not present.
- The findings suggest that while vaccine-induced CD8 T cells are not necessary when protective antibodies are available, they play a crucial role in fighting against different variants of the virus that may evade antibody protection.
