Transiently antigen-primed B cells return to naive-like state in absence of T-cell help
B-cell encounter with antigen is thought to result in anergy, cell death, or a productive B-cell response. Here the authors show that transient antigen acquisition can enable B-cell recruitment into productive responses or a return to a naive-like state, depending on availability of T-cell help.
