T follicular helper cells, T follicular regulatory cells and autoimmunity [PDF]
Abstract CD4 + T follicular helper (Tfh) cells are recognized as a distinct T-cell subset, which provides help for germinal center (GC) formation, B-cell development and affinity maturation, and immunoglobulin class switching, as an indispensable part of adaptive immunity.

Follicular regulatory T cell in atherosclerosis [PDF]
Abstract Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease involving the infiltration of immune cells, such as monocytes/macrophages, neutrophils, T cells, and B cells, into the inner layer of vessel walls. T and B cell functions in the process of atherogenesis, as well as their mutual regulation, have been investigated but several ...

IntroductionHighly sensitised (HS) patients represent up to 30% of patients on the kidney transplant waiting list. When they are transplanted, they have a high risk of acute/chronic rejection and long-term allograft loss.

Follicular regulatory T cells inhibit the development of granzyme B-expressing follicular helper T cells. [PDF]
T follicular regulatory (TFR) cells are found in the germinal center (GC) response and help shape the antibody (Ab) response. However, the precise role of TFR cells in the GC is controversial. Here, we addressed TFR cell function using mice with impaired TFR cell development ( Bcl6-flox/Foxp3-cre

Summary: Follicular helper T cells (TFH) are critical for vaccine and infection elicitation of long-lived humoral immunity, but exaggerated TFH responses can promote autoimmunity and other pathologies.

Deficiency in T follicular regulatory cells promotes autoimmunity [PDF]
T follicular regulatory (Tfr) cells are a new subset of regulatory T (T reg) cells localized in the germinal center to limit the humoral response. Until now, the physiological function of Tfr cells has been largely unknown. In this study, we developed a Bcl6fl/flFoxp3Cre mouse to analyze the function of Tfr cells in immune and autoimmune responses ...

An efficient B cell immunity requires a dynamic equilibrium between positive and negative signals. In germinal centers (GCs), T follicular helper cells are supposed to be the positive regulator while T follicular regulatory (Tfr) cells were assigned to ...

Harnessing Activin A Adjuvanticity to Promote Antibody Responses to BG505 HIV Envelope Trimers
T follicular helper (TFH) cells are powerful regulators of affinity matured long-lived plasma cells. Eliciting protective, long-lasting antibody responses to achieve persistent immunity is the goal of most successful vaccines. Thus, there is potential in
