Although the aetiology of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is unclear, dysregulated B cell responses have been implicated. Here we show that an unusual CD11chiT-bet+ B cell …
High-level expression of the transcription factor T-bet characterizes a phenotypically distinct murine B cell population known as “age-associated B cells”(ABCs). T-bet–deficient mice …

Interleukin-21 is a cytokine with broad pleiotropic actions that affect the differentiation and function of lymphoid and myeloid cells. Since its discovery in 2000, a tremendous amount …
Although a fraction of human blood memory CD4+ T cells expresses chemokine (CXC motif) receptor 5 (CXCR5), their relationship to T follicular helper (Tfh) cells is not well established …
