Local T/B cooperation in inflamed tissues is supported by T follicular helper-like cells
In secondary lymphoid organs T follicular helper (Tfh) cells help B cells to develop into memory B and plasma cells. Here, the authors show that inflamed lung becomes a reservoir of activated B cells with a germinal centre phenotype, and T cells that exhibit Tfh-like properties despite not expressin...
