The paper shows granulysin levels in vaginal secretions peak during menstruation but not the luteal phase, linked to increased granulysin-expressing cells in the endocervical canal.

The paper investigates how regulatory T cells control cytotoxic and bystander CD8 T cell activity in mucosal tissues without affecting antigen-driven memory responses.

This study examines how HSV-2 shedding affects immune cell organization and gene expression in the vaginal mucosa, finding increased immune surveillance and potential tissue homeostasis mechanisms.

This study identifies a reparative role for mucosal NK cells in tissue protection and repair during infection, revealing their dual function in immunity and tissue homeostasis.

This study investigates how bacterial vaginosis alters cervicovaginal immunity, identifying immune cell changes that may contribute to increased HIV susceptibility.

The paper shows HSV-2 is controlled by cytokines from tissue-resident T cells, not direct cell killing, even when T-cell numbers are low.
