🎉 Our new study of CD4 TFH quality is now online @ebiomedicine.bsky.social! We know that TFH are critical for germinal centres and antibody production, but want to understand whether all CD4 responses can be equally helpful to B cells. www.thelancet.com/journals/ebi...

Immunodominance is a poor predictor of vaccine-induced T follicular helper cell quality
Our findings emphasise the importance of CD4+ T cell help for programming robust and durable humoural immunity, and provide crucial insights to guide the rational incorporation of favourable T cell ep...

Brief blockade of type I IFN increases CD8+ T cell memory - Nature Reviews Immunology
A study shows that transient blockade of type I interferon signalling during T cell priming enhances the generation of stem cell-like memory CD8+ T cells after viral infection and mRNA vaccination.

Deconvoluting TCR-dependent and -independent activation is vital for reliable Ag-specific CD4+ T cell characterization by AIM assay
CXCR4 down-regulation deconvolutes TCR-independent activation in the AIM assay.

Should you get the COVID mRNA and flu vaccines in the same or opposite arms? Randomised trial by Lee, Selva, et al. suggests it is preferable to administer the vaccines at different sites. buff.ly/3D4gX95

As a first #ImmunoSky post, I’m excited to share our latest pre-print, by the fantastic Mitchell Zheng! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Our group is interested in virus-specific CD4 T cells, which means we often use in vitro stimulations (like the AIM assay) to find our cells of interest. 🧵 1/9
