T follicular helper (TFH) cells play a crucial part in the development of humoral immunity by controlling the formation of, and the cellular reactions that occur in, germinal centres. Within these organized lymphoid tissue microstructures, B cells proliferate and somatically mutate to produce long-lived, high-affinity plasma cells and memory B cells. TFH cells exhibit unique molecular, cellular and tissue-dynamic features that are integral to their development and function but that are not necessarily compatible with the classical paradigm of effector CD4(+) T cell differentiation. Here, I discuss recent advances in TFH cell biology and their implications for our understanding of T cell differentiation and memory in humoral immunity from spatiotemporal and functional perspectives.
滤泡辅助性 T(TFH)细胞在控制生发中心的形成和其中发生的细胞反应方面,对体液免疫的发展起着至关重要的作用。在这些组织化的淋巴组织微结构中,B 细胞增殖并体细胞突变,产生长寿命、高亲和力的浆细胞和记忆 B 细胞。TFH 细胞表现出独特的分子、细胞和组织动态特征,这些特征是其发育和功能所必需的,但不一定与经典的效应 CD4(+)T 细胞分化范例兼容。在这里,我从时空和功能的角度讨论 TFH 细胞生物学的最新进展及其对我们理解体液免疫中 T 细胞分化和记忆的意义。
