Helper T cells specific for this structure (i.e., with complementary TCRs) bind the B cell and ... This is a very useful function if the target cell is infected with a virus because the cell is usually destroyed before it can release a fresh crop of viruses able to infect other cells.

The new theory, however, proposes that a third signal - helper T cells - acts like a switch to trigger the T-cell activation pathway. ... Helper T cells are known to play a role in the production of antibodies, a function of the immune system. Scientists thought that these cells also aided killer T cells in some way,

Of special note are the results presented herein that clearly demonstrate that antigen-specific regulatory T cell functions of both helper and suppressor types are, in fact, normal in both old as well as young animals of all three autoimmune murine strains.
