"[These studies demonstrate the following: 1) The size of a peptide-specific T-cell response does not correlate with the amount of epitope presented by infected cells; 2) T cells specific for dominant epitopes do not, in the case of L. monocytogenes infection, inhibit responses to subdominant epitopes; 3) T cells responding to different epitopes presented by MHC class Ia molecules expand, contract and enter the memory pool synchronously; 4) Repeated in vivo expansion of antigen-specific T-cell populations results in a narrowing of their T-cell receptor repertoire and in an increase in their affinity for antigen; and 5) T cells restricted by H2-M3 MHC class Ib molecules constitute a major part of the primary response to bacterial infection, but appear to play a relatively smaller role in memory responses.].
