    Snippet: However, protective immunity and the degree of immunopathology varied between experiments, and our attempts to define the epitope specificity of LCMV-specific T cells reactivated by VV were complicated by poor reproducibility in experiments. We have reported that VV frequently expands LCMV NP205-specific T cells from LCMV-immune mice, but this was not always the case. In some mice, there was expansion of T cells specific to other LCMV epitopes (3.....
    Document: However, protective immunity and the degree of immunopathology varied between experiments, and our attempts to define the epitope specificity of LCMV-specific T cells reactivated by VV were complicated by poor reproducibility in experiments. We have reported that VV frequently expands LCMV NP205-specific T cells from LCMV-immune mice, but this was not always the case. In some mice, there was expansion of T cells specific to other LCMV epitopes (3, 4) . This led us to question whether the specificities of cross-reactive T cell responses under conditions of heterologous viral challenge may be unique to the individual.
