CXCR5 is a key marker of follicular helper T (T) cells. Using primary lymph nodes (LNs) from HIV-infected patients, we identified a population of CXCR5 CD4 T cells with T-cell-like features. This CXCR5 subset becomes expanded in severe HIV infection and is characterized by the upregulation of activation markers and high PD-1 and ICOS surface expression. Integrated analyses on the phenotypic heterogeneity, functional capacity, T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire, transcriptional profile, and epigenetic state of CXCR5PD-1ICOS T cells revealed a shared clonal relationship with T cells. CXCR5PD-1ICOS T cells retained a poised state for CXCR5 expression and exhibited a migratory transcriptional program. TCR sequence overlap revealed a contribution of LN-derived CXCR5PD-1ICOS T cells to circulating CXCR5 CD4 T cells with B cell help function. These data link LN pathology to circulating T cells and expand the current understanding on the diversity of T cells that regulate B cell responses during chronic inflammation.
CXCR5 是滤泡辅助 T（T）细胞的一个关键标志物。我们使用感染 HIV 的患者的初级淋巴结（LNs），鉴定出一群具有 T 细胞样特征的 CXCR5 CD4 T 细胞。该 CXCR5 亚群在严重的 HIV 感染中扩增，并表现出激活标志物的上调和高 PD-1 和 ICOS 表面表达。对 CXCR5 PD-1 ICOS T 细胞的表型异质性、功能能力、T 细胞受体（TCR）库、转录谱和表观遗传状态进行综合分析，揭示了与 T 细胞的共享克隆关系。CXCR5 PD-1 ICOS T 细胞保留了 CXCR5 表达的启动状态，并表现出迁移性转录程序。TCR 序列重叠表明 LN 来源的 CXCR5 PD-1 ICOS T 细胞有助于循环中具有 B 细胞辅助功能的 CXCR5 CD4 T 细胞。这些数据将 LN 病理学与循环 T 细胞联系起来，并扩展了目前对慢性炎症期间调节 B 细胞反应的 T 细胞多样性的理解。
