Abstract EN

Human HLA-E can, in addition to self-antigens, also present pathogen-derived sequences, which elicit specific T-cell responses.

T-cells recognize their antigen presented by HLA-E highly specifically and have unique functional and phenotypical properties.

Pathogen specific HLA-E restricted CD8+ T-cells are an interesting new player in the field of immunology.

Future work should address their exact roles and relative contributions in the immune response against infectious diseases.
