Protocol to detect antigen-specific nasal-resident T cells in humans

Specialized T cells are located in the nasal cavity and act as the first line of defense against respiratory viral infection. Here, we present a protocol for the detection and characterization of antigen-specific nasal-resident T cells. We detail steps for localized nasal swabbing to collect the nas...

description Specialized T cells are located in the nasal cavity and act as the first line of defense against respiratory viral infection. Here, we present a protocol for the detection and characterization of antigen-specific nasal-resident T cells. We detail steps for localized nasal swabbing to collect the nasal samples. We then describe IFN-γ ELISpot and an activation-induced marker assay to detect and characterize antigen-specific nasal-resident T cells. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Lim et al. (2022).(1)
