Furthermore, previous studies have demonstrated that CCR5 induces activation and recruitment of CD8+ T cells to inflamed tissues (Palendira et al., 2008; Kohlmeier et al., 2011) or following HIV, coronavirus, hepatitis C virus, Epstein-Barr virus, or cytomegalovirus infections (Fukada et al., 2002; Glass and Lane, 2003a; Glass and Lane, 2003b; Shacklett et al., 2003; Lederman et al., 2006; Hugues et al., 2007). The gene discussed is CD8A; the disease is cytomegalovirus infection.
