Explore the distinct characteristics of Central Memory T cells with enhanced proliferation but limited function and migration, compared to Peripheral Memory/Effector T cells with high function and widespread migration. The transition from Naïve T cells to Exhausted T cells is crucial in immune responses against infections and tumors. Strategies for boosting immunity through priming vectors and balancing PD-1 levels are discussed, including homologous and heterologous prime-boosting approaches. In-depth insights on immune induction, amplification, and re-induction processes are highlighted to achieve the highest immunity levels.
