Galectin-1–secreting monocytes drive durable lung CD8+ memory T cells after influenza

TL;DR Summary
Memory-like CCR2+ monocytes differentiate into long-lasting lung cells that secrete galectin-1 to directly boost the formation and maintenance of lung CD8+ tissue-resident memory T cells, with galectin-1 also enhancing memory responses when used as a mucosal vaccine adjuvant.
