Abstract excerpt
B cells expressing the transcription factor T-bet are found to have a protective role in viral infections, but are also considered major players in the onset of different types of autoimmune diseases. Currently, the exact mechanisms driving such ‘atypical’ memory B cells to contribute to protective immunity or autoimmunity are unclear.
