CXCR5 Expressing Human Central Memory CD4 T Cells and Their Relevance for Humoral Immune Responses
Open accessAbstract
High expression of CXCR5 is one of the defining hallmarks of T follicular helper cells (TFH), a CD4 Th cell subset that promotes germinal center reactions and the selection and affinity maturation of B cells. CXCR5 is also expressed on 20–25% of peripheral blood human central memory CD4 T cells (TCM), although the definitive function of these cells is not fully understood. The constitutive expression of CXCR5 on TFH cells and a fraction of circulating TCM suggests that CXCR5+ TCM may represent a specialized subset of memory-type TFH cells programmed for homing to follicles and providing B cell help. To verify this assumption, we analyzed this cell population and show its specialized function in supporting humoral immune responses. Compared with their CXCR5− TCM counterparts, CXCR5+ TCM expressed high levels of the chemokine CXCL13 and efficiently induced plasma cell differentiation and Ig secretion. We found that the distinct B cell helper qualities of CXCR5+ TCM were mainly due to high ICOS expression and pronounced responsiveness to ICOS ligand costimulation together with large IL-10 secretion. Furthermore, B cell helper attributes of CXCR5+ TCM were almost exclusively acquired on cognate interaction with B cells, but not with dendritic cells. This implies that a preferential recruitment of circulating CXCR5+ TCM to CXCL13-rich B cell follicles is required for the promotion of a quick and efficient protective secondary humoral immune response. Taken together, we propose that CXCR5+ TCM represent a distinct memory cell subset specialized in supporting Ab-mediated immune responses.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
