The B cell receptors of GC B cells undergo multiple rounds of somatic hypermutation and affinity maturation within the GC response, a process dependent on cognate interactions with Tfh cells. B cells that receive sufficient help from Tfh cells form antibody-producing long-lived plasma and memory B cells that provide the basis of decades of effective and efficient protection and are considered the gold standard in correlates of protection post-vaccination. However, the T cell response to vaccination has been understudied, and over the last 10 years, exponential improvements in the technological underpinnings of sampling techniques, experimental and analytical tools have allowed multidisciplinary characterisation of the role of T cells and the immune system as a whole. Of particular interest to the field of vaccinology are GCs and Tfh cells, representing a unique target for improving immunisation strategies. Here, we discuss recent insights into the unique journey of Tfh cells from thymus to lymph node during differentiation and their role in the production of high-quality antibody responses as well as their journey back to the periphery as a population of memory cells. Further, we explore their function in health and disease and the power of next-generation sequencing techniques to uncover their potential as modulators of vaccine-induced immunity.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms21228524","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,12]],"date-time":"2020-11-12T10:00:32Z","timestamp":1605175232000},"page":"8524","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":29,"title":["Tfh Cells in Health and Immunity: Potential Targets for Systems Biology Approaches to Vaccination"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Hannah","family":"Law","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"The Kirby Institute, UNSW Sydney, Sydney 2052, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3340-2367","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vanessa","family":"Venturi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Kirby Institute, UNSW Sydney, Sydney 2052, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anthony","family":"Kelleher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Kirby Institute, UNSW Sydney, Sydney 2052, Australia"},{"name":"St Vincent\u2019s Clinical School, UNSW Sydney, Sydney 2052, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6419-142X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"C.
