Trying to expand the phenotypic characterization of naive T cells, in particular -- to more readily distinguish this state from the activated and memory-differentiated states. Jbarin 12:55, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"out of naive T cell" syndrome

I'm taking out the following:

As there are a limited number of T-cells in the body, eventually the amount can be taken up by memory cells for pathogens encountered in the past that may no longer be needed in comparison to more widely spread modern strains of pathogens.

Please find a reference for this mysterious disease, in which no naive T-cells exist because too many memory cells do; it rather sounds like CAM mumbo-jumbo to me.
