A dynamic T cell–limited checkpoint regulates affinity-dependent B cell entry into the germinal center

The germinal center (GC) reaction is essential for the generation of the somatically hypermutated, high-affinity antibodies that mediate adaptive immunity. Entry into the GC is limited to a small number of B cell clones; however, the process by which this limited number of clones is selected is uncl...
