Role of Macrophage Inflammatory Protein-1{alpha} in T-Cell-Mediated Immunity to Viral Infection

The immune response to lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus in mice lacking macrophage inflammatory protein-1{alpha} (MIP-1{alpha}) was evaluated. Generation of virus-specific effector T cells is unimpaired in MIP-1{alpha}-deficient mice. Furthermore, MIP-1{alpha} is not required for T-cell-mediated virus control or virus-induced T-cell-dependent inflammation. Thus, MIP-1{alpha} is not mandatory for T-cell-mediated antiviral immunity.
