The Role of CD4+ T Follicular Helper Cells in HIV Infection: From the Germinal Center to the Periphery.
T follicular helper cells (TFh) are key components of the adaptive immune system; they are primarily found in germinal centers (GCs) where their interaction with B cells supports humoral immune responses and efficient antibody production. They are defined by the expression of CXC receptor 5, program...
