Regular Article IMMUNOBIOLOGY IL-12 receptor b1 deficiency alters in vivo T follicular helper cell response in humans
• IL-12Rb1–deficient subjects displayed substantially less circulating memory Tfh and memory B cells than control subjects. • The IL-12–STAT4 axis is associated with the development and functions of Tfh cells in vivo in humans. Antibody responses represent a key immune protection mechanism. T follicular helper (Tfh) cells are the major CD4 T-cell subset that provides help to B cells to generate an
متن کاملIL-12– and IL-23–induced T helper cell subsets
Traditionally, CD4(+) T cells have been separated into two different subsets named T helper (Th)1 and Th2. A new IL-23-driven subset of Th cells called Th(IL-17) has now been described. The data suggest that IL-23 plays an important role in the differentiation of autoreactive pathogenic T cells. Whether these IL-23-induced Th(IL-17) cells are a unique subset or are related to other Th subsets i...
متن کاملIL-21 and T follicular helper cells.
Upon encounter with antigen, CD4(+) T cells differentiate into effector T(h) subsets with distinctive functions that are related to their unique cytokine profiles and anatomical locations. One of the most important T(h) functions is to provide signals to developing B cells that induce specific and appropriate antibody responses. The major CD4(+) T cell subset that helps B cells is the T follicu...
متن کاملDownregulated IL-21 Response and T Follicular Helper Cell Exhaustion Correlate with Compromised CD8 T Cell Immunity during Chronic Toxoplasmosis
CD8 T cells are important for maintaining the chronicity of Toxoplasma gondii infection. In a T. gondii encephalitis susceptible model, we recently demonstrated that CD4 T cells play an essential helper role in the maintenance of the effector response and CD8 T cell dysfunctionality was linked to CD4 T cell exhaustion. However, CD4 T cells are constituted of different subsets with various funct...
متن کاملThe role of ICOS in the CXCR5+ follicular B helper T cell maintenance in vivo.
ICOS is a new member of the CD28 family of costimulatory molecules that is expressed on activated T cells. Its ligand B7RP-1 is constitutively expressed on B cells. Although the blockade of ICOS/B7RP-1 interaction inhibits T cell-dependent Ab production and germinal center formation, the mechanism remains unclear. We examined the contribution of ICOS/B7RP-1 to the generation of CXCR5+ follicula...
