1. Home to sites of infection2. Secrete inflammatory cytokines: IFN- and TNF-3. Kill infected cells via perforin/granzyme-mediated lysis.

Antiviral Activity

Our Previous Studies:

1. IFN- /a b does not promote Th1 development

2. Enhances IL-2 secretion and development of TCM cells

3. Inhibits Th2 development

IL-12, but not IFN-, regulates IFN- and TNF- expression in human CD8+ T cells

CCR7 and CXCR3 direct T cell traffic in opposite directions

Inflammed tissues:IP-10, MIG

Lymph nodes:CCL19, CCL21

Naïve:CCR7+CXCR3-

Effector:CCR7-CXCR3+

Central Memory:CCR7+CXCR3-

CXCR3+ Effector/EM: -Preferentially traffic to periphery-High cytolytic activity-High effector cytokine expression -Terminally differentiated/poor expansion to recall

CCR7+ Memory/CM: -Preferential lymph node traffic -Low cytolytic activity -Low effector cytokine, high IL-2 -Multi-potent/strong expansion to recall

Induction of effector and memory CTL development by IL-12 and IFN-

Chowdhury, et. al. Blood 2011

CD8+ effector functions are driven by IL-12 and acquired as a function of proliferation

CXCR3+ cells preferentially secrete IFN-

What is the mechanism?

How do IL-12 and IFN- co-regulate the development of both TEM and TCM?

Differential cytokine responsiveness?

IL-12 and IFN- promote expression of their own receptors


Cytokine responsiveness as a function of cell division



Distinct gene expression patterns are acquired as a function of cytokine responsiveness and proliferation


Unique gene signatures of TEM and TCM


Identification of IL-12-induced genes that are stably expressed in TEM in vivo
