Marker genes
CXCR5, ITGA4, KLRB1, MAF
Annotation genes
CXCR5, KLRB1, MAF
Annotation rationales
CXCR5 relocates cells to follicles; MAF supports IL-21 programs; KLRB1 (CD161) marks functional heterogeneity in human Tfh-leaning memory.
Functional implications
Rapidly deliver B-cell help on recall and seed GC reactions while retaining memory plasticity.
