Abstract excerpt
Gastric CD4+T cells contribute to Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)-induced gastritis by amplifying mucosal inflammation and exacerbating mucosal injuries. However, the pathogenic CD4+ T cell subset involved in gastritis and the potential regulators are still unclear. Here we identified an IL-21-producing gastric CD4+T cell subset, which exhibited tissue-resident CXCR5-BTLA-PD-1hi TFH-like phenotype in H....
