A Proinflammatory Cytokine Network Profile in Th1/Type 1 Effector B Cells Delineates a Common Group of Patients in Four Systemic Autoimmune Diseases

Abstract

This composite analysis brings new insights into human B cell functional heterogeneity based on T cell/B cell cross-talk, and proposes a better stratification of patients with systemic autoimmune diseases, suggesting that combined biomarkers would be of great value for the design of personalized treatments.
