PD-L1 expression on stromal cells enhances T–B cell collaborations and strengthens humoral immunity during germinal center responses.
- Why it matters: The PD-1/PD-L1 axis regulates germinal center activity, but how PD-L1 on specific cell types shapes T–B cooperation and antibody responses remains unclear.
- What they did: Akama-Garren et al. examined how PD-L1 on stromal cells affects T–B cell interactions and downstream humoral immunity in the context of germinal centers.
- The result: Their findings show stromal PD-L1 can promote germinal center collaboration, helping clarify how the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway tunes humoral immune responses.
