Targeting the ICOS / ICOS ‐L pathway in a mouse model of established allergic asthma disrupts T follicular helper cell responses and ameliorates disease
16 Sept 2018
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Background Allergic asthma is characterized by chronic inflammation and remodelling of the airways, associated with dysregulated type 2 immune responses and allergen‐specific IgE. T follicular helper cells ( T FH ) are crucial in T‐dependent B‐cell responses and have been implicated in allergic airway disease ( AAD ). T FH , unlike other CD 4 + T cells, are uniquely reliant on continuous ICOS signalling...
