Decreased Frequencies of Circulating CD4(+) T Follicular Helper Cells Associated with Diminished Plasma IL-21 in Active Pulmonary Tuberculosis

BACKGROUND: Circulating T follicular helper (Tfh) cells represent a distinct subset of CD4(+) T cells and are important in immunity to infections. Although they have been shown to play a role in experimental models of tuberculosis infection, their role in human tuberculosis remains unexplored. AIMS/...
