Identification of Bcl-6-dependent follicular helper NKT cells that provide cognate help for B cell responses.

Identification of Bcl-6-dependent follicular helper NKT cells that provide cognate help for B cell responses.

Lipid antigens trigger help from natural killer T cells (NKT cells) for B cells, and direct conjugation of lipid agonists to antigen profoundly augments antibody responses. Here we show that in vivo, NKT cells engaged in stable and prolonged cognate interactions with B cells and induced the formatio...
