    Snippet: Given their critical role in controlling infection, combined with the difficulty in generating virus-specific T cells for adoptive cell therapy, we have explored T cell receptor (TCR) gene transfer to engineer antiviral T cell immunity. By introducing exogenous antigen specific TCRs cloned from patients able to control infection we could engineer fully functional virus-specific T cells to acutely infecting viruses, such as SARS corona virus 10 , .....
    Document: Given their critical role in controlling infection, combined with the difficulty in generating virus-specific T cells for adoptive cell therapy, we have explored T cell receptor (TCR) gene transfer to engineer antiviral T cell immunity. By introducing exogenous antigen specific TCRs cloned from patients able to control infection we could engineer fully functional virus-specific T cells to acutely infecting viruses, such as SARS corona virus 10 , and viruses causing chronic infections, such as HBV 11 . The HBV-specific T cells engineered in patients with chronic infection recognized infected cells and tumor cells expressing viral antigen as a tumor-associated antigen, which is known to occur in HBV and EBV associated cancers 7, 12 .
