Peptide Driven Identification of TCRs (PDI-TCR) reveals dynamics and phenotypes of CD4 T cells in tuberculosis

Rashmi Tippalagama, Raphael Trevizani, Leila Y. Chihab, Ashu Chawla, Kai Fung, Jason Greenbaum, Kendall Kearns, Aruna Dharshan De Silva, Wathsala Gunasinghe, Judy Perera, Hansani Gunasekera, Darsha D. Senevirathne, Thomas J. Scriba, Alessandro Sette, Cecilia S. Lindestam Arlehamn, , Bjoern Peters

PDI-TCR identifies Mtb-specific TCRs and characterizes their phenotypes in TB patients and healthy individuals, revealing distinct dynamics of specific and unspecific T cell responses.
