Helper
Definition:
(n.) One who, or that which, helps, aids, assists, or relieves; as, a lay helper in a parish.
Example Sentences:
(1) The results indicate that OA-bearing macrophages primed T cells and generated helper T cells, whereas the culture of normal lymphocytes with soluble OA in the absence of macrophages generated suppressor T cells.
(2) Stable factor-dependent B-cell hybridomas were used to monitor the purification of the growth factor from the supernatant of a clonotypically stimulated mouse helper T-cell clone.
(3) Cyclosporine is a fungal endecapeptide of novel chemical structure that causes preferential inhibition of T helper cells.
(4) T cells admixed in the germinal centers were overwhelmingly of the T-helper type.
(5) The data indicate that activated helper T cells are required and sufficient to give rise to the inflammatory infiltrates that are characteristic of the inflammations and exacerbations in human rheumatoid arthritis.
(6) It was demonstrated that antigen specific helper T cell activity was promoted by diazepam administration in mice.
(7) Although T cells exposed to antigen in B-depleted LN of mu sm and irradiated mice gave negligible T proliferative responses in vitro, low but significant levels of primed T helper function were detected in a sensitive T helper assay in vivo.
(8) The neoplastic T cells of three patients had helper activity on both PWM- and IL-2-driven Ig synthesis, and in addition produced IL-2 in response to PWM stimulation.

(11) These steps include soluble antigen processing and presentation and as a result reduced production of IL-4 and IL-1-Inducer Factor ("IL-1-IF") by the T-helper cells and reduced production of IL-1 and IL-2 by the antigen presenting cell population.
(12) LEW rats immunized with each of the three DA MHC chains produced alloantibodies to these chains, suggesting that indirect allorecognition did occur, because of the requirement for cognate recognition of B cells by T helper cells.
