Epigenetic plasticity of Cd8a locus during CD8(+) T-cell development and effector differentiation and reprogramming

Modulation of CD8 coreceptor levels can profoundly affect T-cell sensitivity to antigen. Here we show that the heritable downregulation of CD8 during type 2 polarization of murine CD8(+) effector T cells in vitro and in vivo is associated with CpG methylation of several regions of the Cd8a locus. Th...
