BHLHE40 drives protective polyfunctional CD4 T cell differentiation in the female reproductive tract against Chlamydia

M. A. B. Mercado, Q. Li, C. M. Quick…·L.-X. Li

This study identifies BHLHE40 as a key driver of polyfunctional CD4 T cell differentiation in the female reproductive tract against Chlamydia, showing its role in limiting bacterial shedding.

IFNγ and antibody synergize to enhance protective immunity against Chlamydia dissemination and female reproductive tract reinfections

J. I. Gann, P. A. Malaviarachchi, W. Du…·L.-X. Li

This study shows that IFNγ and B cells work together to prevent Chlamydia dissemination and reinfections, but other mechanisms also contribute to resistance in the female reproductive tract.
