Differential roles of human CD4+ and CD8+ regulatory T cells in controlling self-reactive immune responses - Nature Immunology
Here the authors use a tonsil organoid culture model system to investigate the roles of human CD4+ and CD8+ regulatory T cells in controlling self-reactive immune responses. CD4+ regulatory T cells we...

Interesting study on how high affinity B cells expand well after getting stimulated by TFH cells in the GC. My main beef is they keep referring to proliferating activated B cells-- what I would call plasmablasts-- as plasma cells! Weird. #ImmunoSky #GCSky #TfhSky

Affinity maturation of antibody responses is mediated by differential plasma cell proliferation
Increased antibody affinity over time after vaccination, known as affinity maturation, is a prototypical feature of immune responses. Recent studies have shown that a diverse collection of B cells, pr...
