A Higher Activation Threshold of Memory CD8(+) T Cells Has a Fitness Cost That Is Modified by TCR Affinity during Tuberculosis

T cell vaccines against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and other pathogens are based on the principle that memory T cells rapidly generate effector responses upon challenge, leading to pathogen clearance. Despite eliciting a robust memory CD8(+) T cell response to the immunodominant Mtb antigen TB...
