The authors suggest that, at limiting antigen density, cytotoxicity in the absence of IFN-γ production may predominate, whereas at high antigen density, both responses are triggered.

It is sobering that the patient described in this report made a polyfunctional T-cell response to multiple epitopes, and was nevertheless still susceptible to infection and underwent rapid disease progression.
