Abstract
Natalizumab blocks α4-integrins and is a prototypic agent for a series of anti-inflammatory drugs that impair trafficking of immune cells into the CNS. However, modulation of the access of immune cells to the CNS is associated with impaired immune surveillance and detrimental viral infections of the CNS. Here, we explored the potency of cellular immune responses within the CNS to protect against viral encephalitis in mice with T cell conditional disruption of VLA-4 integrin (α4β1) expression.
While VLA-4 expression in virus specific Th1 cells is non-redundant for their ability to access the CNS, α4-integrin deficient Th17 cells enter the CNS compartment and generate an inflammatory milieu upon intrathecal vaccinia virus (VV) infection. However, in contrast to Th1 cells that can adopt direct cytotoxic properties, Th17 cells fail to clear the virus due to insufficient Eomes induced perforin-1 expression.
The quality of the intrathecal cellular antiviral response under conditions of impaired VLA-4 function jeopardizes host protection. Our functional

For many years integrin targeted blocking of T helper cell trafficking into the CNS has appeared to be an attractive approach to treat immunopathology in MS [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B2">2</xref>]. In particular, monoclonal antibodies (natalizumab) to the α4 subunit of the integrin VLA-4 (α4β1 heterodimer) were successfully used to prevent the influx of immune cells into the CNS and to treat CNS autoimmunity [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B3">3</xref>]. However, in experimental models it has been shown that distinct encephalitogenic T cell subsets vary in their equipment with VLA-4 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B4">4</xref>]. While Th1 cells maintain high amounts of VLA-4 expression, Th17 cells are low in VLA-4. As a consequence, blockade of VLA-4 is more efficient in preventing the recruitment of Th1 cells than of Th17 cells into the CNS parenchyma.</p><p>Although considered as an “immune privileged” organ, the CNS is still patrolled by T cells as a means of immune surveillance [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B5">5</xref>]. The contribution of CD4<sup>+</sup> vs CD8<sup>+</sup> effector memory T cells in the migratory and resident pools of lymphocytes specific to a given pathogen has been investigated in skin infection but is unclear in the CNS [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B6">6</xref>]. In the treatment of organ specific autoimmunity and chronic inflammation, efforts are increasing to market compounds that either inhibit immune cell trafficking [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B7">7</xref>-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B10">10</xref>] or cytokine networks that affect distinct T helper cell subsets in a differential manner (anti-IL-23p19, anti-IL-17A [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B11">11</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B12">12</xref>], anti-GM-CSF (NCT01517282), anti-IL-6R [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B13">13</xref>]). However, preclinical models to investigate niche specific immune surveillance and host defense in the CNS are rare. Indeed, efalizumab, a blocking antibody to the integrin αL was withdrawn from the market in 2009 because of viral meningitis and cases of JC virus induced progressive multifocal leukencephalopathy (PML) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B14">14</xref>].</p><p>Here, we established a CNS specific viral infection model that allowed us to analyze the contribution of distinct T helper cell subsets to host protection. We chose vaccinia virus (VV) infection where the importance of virus specific T helper cell responses has been analyzed previously [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B15">15</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B16">16</xref>]. Vaccinated mice were found to be protected from intrathecal (i.th.) infection with VV due to cellular immunity. In the absence of CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells, Th1 like cells were sufficient to protect mice from intrathecal VV infection. Access of Th1 cells into the infected CNS compartment was dependent on VLA-4 expression. Although virus specific Th17 cells were able to migrate into the CNS in the absence of VLA-4, CNS recruited and infected macrophages were not cleared by Th17 cells since Th17 cells – in contrast to Th1 cells – were deficient in perforin-1 expression. These data highlight a dominant role of Th1 cells in antiviral tissue-specific immunity. Our data further suggest that as in autoimmune inflammation of the CNS, virus specific Th1 cells are dependent on VLA-4 to enter into the CNS and virus infection does not overcome the requirement for Th1 cells to express VLA-4. Thus, integrin targeted therapeutic interventions in autoimmunity and chronic inflammation need to be refined in order to not jeopardize organ specific immune surveillance and host protection.</p></sec><sec sec-type="materials|methods"><title>Materials and methods</title><sec><title>Animals, immunization, and infection</title><p><italic>Foxp3gfp</italic>.KI mice [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B17">17</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B18">18</xref>] and <italic>Itga4</italic><sup><italic>flox/flox</italic></sup> mice [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B19">19</xref>] have been described previously. <italic>CD4 Cre</italic> mice, <italic>Ifng</italic><sup><italic>-/-</italic></sup> mice, <italic>Rag1</italic><sup><italic>-/-</italic></sup> mice, <italic>Prf1</italic><sup><italic>-/-</italic></sup> mice, and wild type C57BL/6 mice were obtained from Jackson Laboratories.

By titrating the dose of the inoculum, the half lethal dose (LD50) was determined to be approximately 500 plaque forming units (PFU) (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">1</xref>A). In systemic infection, VV is known to preferentially replicate in the ovaries upon hematogenous dissemination. We therefore measured viral loads in CNS and ovaries of mice injected i.th. with 1.000 PFUs of VV. While high titers of VV were measured in the CNS, virus was not detected in the ovaries of intrathecally infected mice (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">1</xref>B) indicating that intrathecal injection of VV led to a compartmentalized infection within the CNS without systemic dissemination. Within the CNS compartment, VV antigen was detected in ventricular lining cells and plexus epithelium cells as well as in astrocytes of the glia limitans. Some innate immune cells of monocytic origin that were recruited to the infected CNS compartment were also positive for VV antigen (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">1</xref>C).</p><fig id="F1" position="float"><label>Figure 1</label><caption><p><bold>Intrathecal infection with VV causes lethal encephalitis.

This is in line with a recent study which identified infiltrating CD11b<sup>+</sup>CD45<sup>+</sup> inflammatory monocytes as the predominant VV infected leukocyte population during VV skin infection [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B22">22</xref>]. Microglial cells (CD11b<sup>+</sup>CD45<sup>low</sup>), T cells and B cells did not show eGFP expression. In addition, we were unable to detect eGFP expressing cells in the spleens of intrathecally injected mice, further demonstrating that VV infection was restricted to the CNS compartment. Importantly, infected CD11b<sup>+</sup>CD45<sup>high</sup> macrophages expressed MHC class II (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2</xref>B). Thus, phagocytic cells were recruited from the systemic compartment in response to i.th.

In order to investigate the contribution of antigen specific effector T helper cells to host defense against i.th. VV infection, we immunized wild type mice with a replication deficient strain of VV (MVA) emulsified in complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA) 10 days prior to i.th. challenge with VV. CFA induces both Th1 and Th17 responses. Here, we were interested in investigating the role of these T helper cell subsets in the trade-off between host protection and immunopathology during infectious encephalitis. While sham-immunized mice died at day 6 after infection and largely failed to recruit either CD4<sup>+</sup> T helper cells or VV-specific CTLs into the CNS compartment (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>A,B), MVA immunized animals harbored both antigen specific CTLs and CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells in the CNS and recovered from VV encephalitis (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>A-C). While CTLs re-isolated from the CNS largely produced IFN-γ, the intrathecal CD4<sup>+</sup> effector T cell compartment comprised IFN-γ producers, IL-17 producers, and IFN-γ/IL-17 double producers (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>C). In summary, protective immunity against intrathecal VV infection was associated with the mobilization of both CTLs and CD4<sup>+</sup> effector T helper cells to the CNS.</p><fig id="F3" position="float"><label>Figure 3</label><caption><p><bold>Immunization with modified VV Ankara (MVA) confers protective immunity against viral encephalitis.</bold> Wild type mice were immunized subcutaneously with a replication deficient strain of VV (Modified Vaccinia Virus Ankara, MVA) or PBS emulsified in complete Freund’s Adjuvant (CFA).

Here, we took advantage of the differential integrin requirement for the recruitment of Th1 cells vs Th17 cells into the CNS compartment. In the EAE model, Th1 cells depend on α4-integrins in order to enter into the CNS during autoimmune inflammation. In contrast, Th17 cells are able to access the CNS compartment independently of α4-integrins using an LFA-1 dependent mechanism [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B4">4</xref>]. Here, we treated our MVA immunized mice with blocking antibodies to integrin α4 (PS/2) prior to i.th. VV challenge (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F4">4</xref>A). Notably, MVA immune mice survived i.th. VV infection in spite of integrin α4 blockade (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F4">4</xref>A). As expected, we found a relative abundance of IL-17 producing T cells as compared with IFN-γ positive T helper cells (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F4">4</xref>B). This finding supported the idea that – similar to T cell recruitment in autoimmune inflammation of the CNS – Th1 cells and Th17 cells exhibited distinct integrin requirements for their entry into CNS in the context of a local virus infection. Interestingly, while the absolute number of CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells was reduced in the CNS, which was largely due to the reduction of IFN-γ producing CD4<sup>+</sup> effector T cells, the number of CTLs recruited to the CNS compartment was not significantly reduced in anti-integrin α4 treated mice (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F4">4</xref>C). Thus, integrin α4 mediated mechanisms appeared to be redundant for the recruitment of effector CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells into the infected CNS.</p><fig id="F4" position="float"><label>Figure 4</label><caption><p><bold>Antibody mediated blockade of integrin α4 prevents entry of Th1, but not Th17 cells or CD8</bold><sup><bold>+</bold></sup><bold>T cells into the CNS.</bold> Wild type mice were sham immunized (PBS/CFA) or immunized with MVA/CFA followed by intrathecal VV challenge on day 10 after immunization.

Thus, sensitization for adaptive cellular immune responses against VV in draining lymph nodes and spleen was not impaired by the lack of α4-integrins on T cells.</p><p>Next, we challenged MVA immune and CD8<sup>+</sup> depleted wild type and α4 CKO mice with i.th.

Even in the complete absence of CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F5">5</xref>B), CD4<sup>+</sup> effector T helper cells were protective in wild type mice but failed to control virus replication in the CNS of α4 CKO mice (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F5">5</xref>C). Recapitulating our observations with anti-α4 integrin (PS/2) administration, α4-integrin deficient T helper cells re-isolated from the CNS of VV challenged mice exhibited a Th17 like phenotype while the number of Th1 like cells was significantly reduced in α4 CKO animals as compared with controls (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F5">5</xref>D, E).

In order to test this possibility, we neutralized IFN-γ by monoclonal antibodies in MVA immune and CD8<sup>+</sup> T cell depleted wild type mice (Additional file <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="S2">2</xref>: Figure S2). In this purely T helper cell dependent scenario, VV specific Th1 and Th17 cells were generated and had access to the VV challenged CNS.

Efficiency of IFN-γ blockade was documented by reduced levels of MHC class II expression on microglial cells in the CNS compartment (Additional file <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="S2">2</xref>: Figure S2). These data suggested that IFN-γ was redundant as an effector molecule in the clearance of intrathecal VV infection and refuted the idea that diminished IFN-γ expression by Th17 cells was responsible for the failure to clear intracerebral VV infection.</p><p>In order to define potential molecular mechanisms of T helper cell mediated host protection in intracerebral viral infection, we screened the expression profile of highly purified CD4<sup>+</sup> effector T cells isolated from the CNS of VV challenged wild type vs α4 CKO mice for molecules directly involved in virus defense (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F7">7</xref>A).

In contrast, the expression of perforin-1 (<italic>Prf1</italic>) was markedly reduced in α4-integrin deficient as compared with wild type T helper cells. In order to correlate lack of <italic>Prf1</italic> expression with the Th17 transcriptional program, we purified CD3<sup>+</sup>CD4<sup>+</sup>CD44<sup>-</sup>Foxp3<sup>-</sup> naïve T cells from <italic>Foxp3gfp</italic>.KI mice and stimulated them without exogenous cytokines (Th0) or differentiated them into Th1 cells or Th17 cells (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F7">7</xref>B). Consistent with our <italic>in vivo</italic> data, we found a significant reduction in Prf1 mRNA and protein in Th17 as compared with Th1 and Th0 cells. Notably, protein expression of Prf1 was only seen at late time points (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F7">7</xref>B). Since expression of Prf1 has been reported to depend on the expression of the transcription factor eomesodermin (Eomes) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B26">26</xref>], we measured RNA levels of Eomes in CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells isolated from brains of VV infected wild type and α4 CKO mice. Consistent with the low expression of Prf1 in Th17 cells, Eomes mRNA levels were reduced in CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells isolated from α4 CKO mice as compared with wild type controls (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F7">7</xref>C). To formally validate whether reduced Eomes expression in Th17 cells accounted for diminished Prf1 expression as compared with Th0 and Th1 cells, we polarized Th17 cells <italic>in vitro</italic> and overexpressed Eomes by retroviral transduction (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F7">7</xref>D). FACS sorted transduced (GFP<sup>+</sup>) Th17 cells expressed abundant levels of Eomes as compared with control vector proving effective transduction; concomitantly, Prf1 RNA was significantly increased in Eomes transduced Th17 cells.

We show that access inhibition to the CNS of selected T helper cell subsets by integrin targeted interventions results in the failure of host defense. Intrathecal infection with vaccinia virus (VV) was controlled in vaccinated mice when CD4<sup>+</sup> and CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells had access to the CNS compartment. Blockade of α4-integrins by neutralizing antibodies or T cell conditional disruption of α4-integrin expression did not prevent CTLs and Th17 cells from entering the CNS parenchyma while Th1 cells were blocked from migrating into the CNS. When CD8<sup>+</sup> CTLs were depleted, host defense against intrathecal VV infection was still maintained as long as efficient Th1 like responses were operational within the CNS. In contrast, Th17 cells alone failed to rescue individuals from CNS infection despite a strong inflammatory response. Perforin-1 expression by T helper cells was required for clearance of intrathecal VV infection and Th17 cells failed to eliminate VV in the CNS due to lack of Eomes dependent Prf1 expression.</p><p>Adaptive cellular immune responses are necessary for the clearance of systemic VV infection. CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells recognize epitopes from early antigens of VV but robust CD4<sup>+</sup> T cell responses are also required for direct and indirect antiviral effects [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B27">27</xref>-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B30">30</xref>]. Niche restricted or organ specific infection may afford specific effector functions. For example, VV skin infection is contained and cleared by a temporally and spatially organized interaction of Ly6G<sup>+</sup> innate immune cells and CD8<sup>+</sup> CTLs [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B22">22</xref>]. In the ovaries, clearance of VV correlates with the number of effector memory CTLs that are present in the ovaries of VV immunized mice before challenge with the virus [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B31">31</xref>]. Here, we established an intrathecal infection model with VV and used this system as an <italic>in vivo</italic> surrogate to correlate the access of distinct T helper cell subsets with successful host defense. Intrathecal infection of naive wild type C57BL/6 mice with VV was lethal because adaptive antiviral immune responses did not develop upon i.th. infection alone although innate immune cells and in particular CD11b<sup>+</sup>CD45<sup>high</sup> monocytic cells were recruited to the infected CNS. Active immunization of mice with MVA in CFA prior to i.th. VV challenge protected the animals from lethal encephalitis. Protection was independent of neutralizing antibodies. However, access of VV specific Th1 cells into the CNS compartment was necessary and sufficient for host protection.</p><p>Migration of effector cells into the CNS is mediated by chemokine receptors and integrins. Several cytolytic and non-cytolytic viral infection models of the CNS were used to investigate principles of immune cell recruitment into the CNS. Depending on the viral agent, immune cell recruitment into the CNS cleared the pathogen or in addition, caused immunopathogenic tissue damage. CCR5 and CXCR3 were identified to be important for immune cell recruitment into the CNS in west nile or MHV and LCMV infection, respectively [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B32">32</xref>-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B35">35</xref>]. Chemotaxis of immune cells must be complemented by integrin mediated interaction with endothelial cells for the transmigration of immune cells across the blood brain barrier [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B36">36</xref>]. Early work suggested that accumulation of antigen specific T cells in the CNS compartment of sindbis virus infected animals is mediated by engagement of LFA-1 but not VLA-4 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B37">37</xref>]. Using genetic tools, we have recently shown that distinct T helper cell subsets use distinct integrins to access the CNS compartment in autoimmune inflammation. The entry of Th17 cells into the subarachnoid space most likely requires CCR6 and LFA-1 but is independent of VLA-4 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B4">4</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B38">38</xref>]. In fact, Th17 cells express low levels of α4-integrins since TGF-β, which is required for Th17 cell commitment [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B17">17</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B39">39</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B40">40</xref>], inhibits the expression of α4-integrins [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B41">41</xref>]. Interestingly, antigen specific CD8<sup>+</sup> CTLs also migrated into the CNS independently of α4-integrins (both in α4-integrin antibody blockade and T cell conditional genetic disruption of <italic>Itga4</italic>). This is consistent with the observation that CD4<sup>+</sup> T cell are preferentially reduced in CSF of natalizumab treated patients as compared with CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells resulting in the reversion of the CSF CD4<sup>+</sup>/CD8<sup>+</sup> ratio [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B23">23</xref>]. Although one report suggested that CD8<sup>+</sup> T cell influx into the CNS was prevented by a blocking antibody to α4-integrins in an intracerebral corona virus infection model, it is unlikely that the recruitment of antigen specific CTLs was assessed by Ifergan et al. since their model did not allow for active priming and activation of adaptive T cell responses in the systemic lymphoid compartment prior to intracerebral challenge [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B42">42</xref>]. In contrast to Th17 cells, VLA-4 expression is indispensable and non-redundant for the capacity of antigen experienced Th1 cells to infiltrate into the subarachnoid space and the CNS compartment. Here, we provide evidence that MHC class II positive infected phagocytic cells in the CNS need to be cleared by Th1 cells in order to rescue mice from lethal encephalitis. Thus, MVA-immune T cell conditional α4 KO mice succumbed to intrathecal VV challenge because they failed to recruit Th1 cells into the CNS despite regular Th17 cell accumulation.</p><p>Antigen specific CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells communicated with virus infected macrophages within the CNS parenchyma and only eliminated the infected cells when they were sufficient in perforin-1 expression. In ectromelia infection, a natural mouse pox infection, perforin-1 expression by CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells is required to clear the pathogen, and CD4<sup>+</sup> T cell mediated killing of hematopoietic MHC class II expressing infected target cells occurs in the draining lymph nodes, the liver, and the spleen [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B28">28</xref>]. Direct cytotoxic effects of antigen specific CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells were also reported in systemic VV infection [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B43">43</xref>]. In our model, T cell conditional α4-integrin deficient mice behaved like perforin-1 deficient animals and succumbed to infection because perforin-1 expressing Th1 cells did not reach the CNS compartment in the absence of VLA-4. Like in EAE, the cytokine phenotype of T helper cells that entered into the CNS compartment in the absence of α4-integrin showed a Th17 profile [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B4">4</xref>]. Th17 cells did not express perforin-1. Initial Th17 cell commitment is sensitive to IL-2 and high IL-2 concentrations inhibit Th17 differentiation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B44">44</xref>]. In contrast, IL-2 promotes the expression of granzyme B and perforin-1 and boosts cytotoxic capacity of CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B45">45</xref>]. While the transcriptional control of granzyme B and perforin-1 has in part been investigated in CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B46">46</xref>], we found that perforin-1 expression in Th1 cells is associated with Eomes and overexpression of Eomes in Th17 cells partially reconstituted perforin-1 expression. Similar observations have been reported for Th2 cells that <italic>per se</italic> also lack perforin-1 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B26">26</xref>], which correlates with their low cytotoxic efficacy. However, lack of perforin-1 expression in Th17 cells may not be the only mechanism to impair their antiviral capacity. For example, Th17 cells are able to mount a protective response in primary lung infection with influenza in IL-10 KO mice suggesting that Th17 cells are particularly susceptible to IL-10 mediated suppression [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B47">47</xref>]. In addition, induction of prosurvival factors by Th17 cells may contribute to viral persistence in the CNS in Theiler’s virus infection [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B48">48</xref>]. Conversely, it is possible that in some anatomical niches, Th17 cells may contribute to protective antiviral immune responses, e.g. by effective IL-17 mediated recruitment of neutrophils in lung infection [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B49">49</xref>]. Also, IL-21, which is produced by Th17 cells, might have a role in the modulation of primary and recall CTL responses by increasing their proliferation and reducing their sensitivity to exhaustion [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B50">50</xref>]. However, overall it is a more common scenario that antiviral Th17 responses fail to clear viral pathogens but rather drive deleterious immunopathology in the skin [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B51">51</xref>], in the cornea [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B52">52</xref>], and also in the CNS.</p><p>We have shown that blockade or genetic lack of α4-integrins on T cells selectively modulated the access of T helper cell subsets to the CNS. Preferential limitation of Th1 trafficking jeopardized host defense against intrathecal VV infection. Nevertheless, our experimental system has several limitations: First, i.th. inoculation of VV does not represent a natural route of CNS infection. Yet, immunization with virus antigens in CFA provides an efficient way to generate both an antigen specific Th1 and Th17 response in the secondary lymphoid tissue and to study their trafficking and effector functions upon i.th. challenge with a well characterized pathogen. Second, i.th. VV infection results in an acute encephalomyelitis, which causes rapid decay and death of infected animals; in contrast, JC virus induced PML is due to insufficient control of a latent virus infection of oligodendrocytes. However, the intracerebral anti-JC virus CD4<sup>+</sup> T cell response contributes substantially to JCV control because efficient clearance of JC virus from the CNS after immune reconstitution by wash-out of natalizumab in MS patients with PML is associated with the re-occurrence of Th1 cells in the CNS [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B53">53</xref>].</p></sec><sec sec-type="conclusions"><title>Conclusions</title><p>Our experimental model provides a mechanistic explanation for insufficient virus control under conditions of altered T cell migration. Our data raise the concern that treatment of humans with compounds like natalizumab that interfere with T cell trafficking not only by quantitatively reducing the migration of T cells into the CNS but also by selectively targeting distinct T cell subsets may evoke serious deficiencies in cellular immune responses at privileged anatomical sites like the CNS. As a result, primary infections or unexpected reactivations of latent viruses may be facilitated.</p></sec><sec><title>Supporting data</title><p>The data sets supporting the results of this article are included within the article and its additional files.</p></sec><sec><title>Competing interests</title><p>The authors declare that they have no competing interests.</p></sec><sec><title>Authors’ contributions</title><p>TK, VR and AM designed the study and wrote the manuscript.
