CXCR5 is a key marker of follicular helper T (T-FH) cells. Using primary lymph nodes (LNs) from HIVinfected patients, we identified a population of CXCR5(-) CD4(+) T cells with T-FH -cell-like features. This CXCR5(-) subset becomes expanded in severe HIV infection and is characterized by the upregulation of activation markers and high PD-1 and ICOS surface expression. Integrated analyses on the phenotypic heterogeneity, functional capacity, T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire, transcriptional profile, and epigenetic state of CXCR5(-) PD-1(+)ICOS(+) T cells revealed a shared clonal relationship with TFH cells. CXCR5(-) PD-1(+)ICOS(+) T cells retained a poised state for CXCR5 expression and exhibited a migratory transcriptional program. TCR sequence overlap revealed a contribution of LN-derived CXCR5(-) PD-1(+)ICOS(+) T cells to circulating CXCR5(-) CD4(+) T cells with B cell help function. These data link LN pathology to circulating T cells and expand the current understanding on the diversity of T cells that regulate B cell responses during chronic inflammation.
