TFH1-like cells activate B cells and induce antibody production. (A) B cells were cultured with the indicated cell population (3:1 B/T ratio) and activation status was assessed by flow cytometry analysis of GL7 and FAS expression. Shown is representative data from five independent experiments. (B) The percentage of activated B cells (FAS+GL7+ cells) as assessed by flow cytometry in ‘A’ (mean of n = 5 ± s.e.m.). (C) ELISA analysis of antibody production by B cells cultured with the indicated cell population (3:1 B/T ratio) for 5 days (mean OD of n = 5 ± s.e.m.). **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001; one-way ANOVA with Tukey multiple-comparison test.
