Could CD4 capture by CD8+ T cells play a role in HIV spreading?
CD8(+) T cells have been shown to capture plasma membrane fragments from target cells expressing their cognate antigen, a process termed 'trogocytosis'. Here, we report that human CD4, the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) receptor, can be found among the proteins transferred by trogocytosis. CD4 i...
