Santiago Carmona 🧬🧑🏽🔬 💻Authored by Andrew G. Soerens et al, we show that #Tcells are capable of proliferating in response to iterative stimulation for over 10yrs! And produce enough progeny to occupy a volume 30,000x the Earth's volume! @[email protected] https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-022-05626-9

Functional T cells are capable of supernumerary cell division and longevity - Nature
Through iterative cycles of viral challenge and rechallenge over ten years, mouse T cells are demonstrated to have essentially infinite potential for population expansion and longevity without malignant transformation or loss of functional competence.
