Thymic Treg-derived T follicular regulatory cells prevent catastrophic humoral autoimmunity in response to TLR7-driven inflammation

Layla Pohl, Lasse Frank Voss, Gudrun Winther, Jensen, Kenneth Green, Yamira C. L. Weber, Julia Karen Demtröder, Cecilia Hagert, Thomas Rea Wittenborn, Chaido Sirinian, Mathias Krogh Pedersen, Johanne Vium-Heinesen, Kristian Savstrup Kastberg, Sofie Vestergaard Fonager, Johannes Skraep, , Søren Egedal Degn

This study shows that thymic Treg-derived T follicular regulatory cells prevent autoimmunity by limiting GC responses during TLR7-driven inflammation.

Display of clustered antigen by follicular dendritic cells tunes B-cell receptor activation

Ali Shahrokhtash, Hiroaki Ogasawara, Kristian Savstrup Kastberg, Khalid S. Salaita, Søren Egedal Degn, Duncan S. Sutherland

The paper shows that antigen clustering on follicular dendritic cells enhances B-cell receptor activation through geometric control of tyrosine phosphatase exclusion.
