Multimodal analysis defines GNG4 as a distinguishing feature of germinal center-positioned CD4 T follicular helper cells in humans https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.64898/2025.12.10.693235v1

Incredibly happy to share Sam’s work between my lab and that of @derek-oldridge.bsky.social. What cellular programs are engaged by GC-positioned human Tfh? The answers held a few surprises.
T follicular helper cells adopt alter egos and localize to diverse niches - what gene expression programs distinguish Tfh in the germinal center? After dissociating tissue samples into single-cell suspension, can we infer which Tfh were positioned in GCs? Check out our new preprint! bit.ly/3XVsrCI

CD4 T follicular helper (Tfh) cells coordinate humoral immune responses within germinal centers (GC) of lymphoid tissue. Despite their critical roles in vaccination and autoimmunity, the gene expressi...
