T cell exhaustion dynamics in systemic autoimmune disease
2023-12-23
Abstract excerpt
Unlike in infection and cancer, T cell exhaustion in autoimmune disease has not been clearly defined. Here we set out to understand inhibitory protein (PD-1, Tim3, CTLA4, Lag3) expression in CXCR5- and CXCR5+ CD8 and CD4 T cells in systemic lupus erythematosus. CXCR5+ CD8 and CD4 T cells express PD-1 and engage B cells in germinal center reactions, leading to autoantibody formation in autoimmunity. We hypothesized...
