“…Generally, IL-4 directs GC B cells into memory cells, whereas IL-10 typically steers them toward a PC phenotype (62)(63)(64). Also, IL-21 has recently been recognized as a potent PC differentiation factor in human B cells, rapidly generating plasmablasts from naive, memory, and GC B cells in vitro (41,42,65,66). Furthermore, ICOS-ICOS-L interactions have been shown to play an important Freshly purified CXCR5 + and CXCR5 2 T CM were analyzed by flow cytometry for the expression of CD57, ICOS, PD1, OX40, and CD40L.…”
