To understand how memory CD4 T cells are generated we have re-examined the requirements for continuing antigen stimulation in the generation and persistence of this population. We find that specific antigen is only required for a short period during the activation of naive CD4 T cells and is not required for memory generation from activated CD4 T cells or for persistence of resting memory cells generated by transfer of activated CD4 to adoptive hosts. Moreover, transfer of activated CD4 T cells to class-II-deficient hosts, indicates that TcR-class II major histocompatibility interaction is also unnecessary for either the transition from activated CD4 T cell to resting memory cells or for persistence over an eight-week period. Thus the signals regulating generation and maintenance of memory are fundamentally different from those which regulate the expansion of effector CD4 T-cell populations which include antigen itself and the CD4 T-cell autocrine cytokines induced by antigen.
