Immunological mechanism of IgG4-related disease

open access: yesJournal of Translational Autoimmunity, 2020
IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is an immune-mediated inflammatory disorder in multiple organs, characterized by abundant infiltration of IgG4-positive plasmacytes and fibrosis in the involved organs.

Th17 effector cells support B bell responses outside of germinal centres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Th17 cells are pro-inflammatory CD4+T cells, which are important in immune responses against fungal pathogens and extracellular bacteria and have also been implicated in various autoimmune syndromes.

Characterization of T Follicular Helper Cells and T Follicular Regulatory Cells in HIV-Infected and Sero-Negative Individuals

open access: yesCells, 2023
Humoral immune response is important in fighting pathogens by the production of specific antibodies by B cells. In germinal centers, T follicular helper (TFH) cells provide important help to B-cell antibody production but also contribute to HIV ...

Detection of Mouse Natural Killer T Follicular Helper (NKTFH) Cells by Flow Cytometry

open access: yes, 2016
Natural killer T follicular helper (NKTFH) cell, a recently identified B-cell helper innate cell population, can be easily missed due to its low frequency and the fact that it only forms upon immunization or infection with glycolipid-containing antigens ...

Plexin B2 and Semaphorin 4C Guide T Cell Recruitment and Function in the Germinal Center

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Summary: Follicular T helper (TFH) cells orchestrate the germinal center (GC) response locally. TFH localization in GCs is controlled by chemo-guidance cues and antigen-specific adhesion. Here.

Follicular Helper T Cells: Lineage and Location [PDF]

open access: yesImmunity, 2009
Follicular helper T (Tfh) cells are the class of effector T helper cells that regulates the step-wise development of antigen-specific B cell immunity in vivo. Deployment of CXCR5+ Tfh cells to B cell zones of lymphoid tissues and stable cognate interactions with B cells are central to the delivery of antigen-specific Tfh cell function.

Marginal zone B cells: virtues of innate-like antibody-producing lymphocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Protective responses to microorganisms involve the nonspecific but rapid defence mechanisms of the innate immune system, followed by the specific but slow defence mechanisms of the adaptive immune system. Located as sentinels at the interface between the

T follicular helper and T follicular regulatory cells have different TCR specificity

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
T follicular helper and regulatory cells are generated in the germinal centre; however, whether antigen specificity defines their differential functions is unclear.
