TB granuloma: CD30 co-stimulation for CD4+ T cell co-operation.

Tuberculosis granuloma T cells express an array of mediators including the CD30 co-stimulatory receptor and its ligand, CD153. CD4 T effector cells require signals through CD30, potentially provided co-operatively by other T cells, to completely differentiate and protect against disease (Foreman et al., 2023. J. Exp.
