Two subsets of TPH cells with distinct functions in RA
Nature Reviews Rheumatology, Published online: 05 September 2025; doi:10.1038/s41584-025-01300-2Stem-like and effector-like peripheral helper T cells have distinct functions in rheumatoid arthritis.

📣Our new paper is out in Science Immunology. Yuki Masuo revealed two distinct subsets of peripheral helper T (Tph) cells in
#RheumatoidArthritis
.
@chimomonga.bsky.social
has nicely illustrated Tph-cell life.

Another publication in Science Immunology. We revealed that stem-like peripheral helper T (Tph) cells self-renew, proliferate, and sustain the pathogenesis of
#RheumatoidArthritis
in the synovium.

“IGFL2 gene expression was specifically ⬆️ in
#TPH
cells in synovial tissue and fluid samples of patients with
#RA
. IGFL2 enhanced both TGF-β–induced production of CXCL13 by CD4 T cells and ⬆️ a shift in monocyte gene expression similar to pathogenic ones.”

Human CD4+ T cells regulate peripheral immune responses in rheumatoid arthritis via insulin-like growth factor–like family member 2
IGFL2 is preferentially expressed by TPH cells and influences CD4+ T differentiation and macrophage activation in rheumatoid arthritis.

A primate-specific cytokine, IGFL2, produced by helper T cells in rheumatoid arthritis joints, has been identified as a potential marker of disease activity and a target for new therapies.

When immune commanders misfire: New insights into rheumatoid arthritis inflammation
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the lining of the joints (the synovium), causing pain, swelling, and progressive damage.

Our study on immune responses in synovial tissue of patients with rheumatoid arthritis reveals the involvement of an evolutionary novel cytokine IGFL2 in the pathogenesis.
