Additionally, IgM−IgD−FAS+GL-7− and IgM−IgD−FAS−GL-7− non-GC B cell numbers were increased and both populations contained increased IgG1 but decreased IgG2b ratios (Supplemental Figure S9G), Consistently, CD4+Foxp3− CXCR5−PD-1+ T peripheral helper (Tph) cells, which promote extrafollicular B cell antibody responses and contribute to autoimmunity (54–57), were increased in both percentages and numbers (Supplemental Figure S9H), associated with increased proliferation but not survival (Supplemental Figure S9I) and upregulated ICOS levels (Supplemental Figure S9J). This evidence concerns the gene CD4 and Autoimmunity.
