Fig. 7. Proposed model postulating the cross-talk between naïve and activated memory CD8 T cells.

a Upon pathogen re-exposure memory CD8 T cells become activated in the draining lymph nodes and b migrate to the site of infection to control the pathogen. c A proportion of the activated memory CD8 T cells migrates to antigen-free lymph nodes where they interact with naïve CD8 T cells resulting in acquisition of an activated/memory phenotypic properties by naïve CD8 T cells.
