Abstract
- CXCR5 is a key marker of follicular helper T (T <subscript>FH</subscript> ) cells. Using primary lymph nodes (LNs) from HIV-infected patients, we identified a population of CXCR5 <superscript>-</superscript> CD4 <superscript>+</superscript> T cells with T <subscript>FH</subscript> -cell-like features. This CXCR5 <superscript>-</superscript> subset becomes expanded in severe HIV infection and is characterized by the upregulation of activation markers and high PD-1 and ICOS surface expression. Integrated analyses on the phenotypic heterogeneity, functional capacity, T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire, transcriptional profile, and epigenetic state of CXCR5 <superscript>-</superscript> PD-1 <superscript>+</superscript> ICOS <superscript>+</superscript> T cells revealed a shared clonal relationship with T <subscript>FH</subscript> cells. CXCR5 <superscript>-</superscript> PD-1 <superscript>+</superscript> ICOS <superscript>+</superscript> T cells retained a poised state for CXCR5 expression and exhibited a migratory transcriptional program. TCR sequence overlap revealed a contribution of LN-derived CXCR5 <superscript>-</superscript> PD-1 <superscript>+</superscript> ICOS <superscript>+</superscript> T cells to circulating CXCR5 <superscript>-</superscript> CD4 <superscript>+</superscript> T cells with B cell help function. These data link LN pathology to circulating T cells and expand the current understanding on the diversity of T cells that regulate B cell responses during chronic inflammation.<br /> (Published by Elsevier Inc.)
