T follicular helper (Tfh) cells provide help to germinal center B cells for affinity maturation, class switch and memory formation. Despite these important functions, this subset has not been studied in detail in pigs due to a lack of species-specific antibodies. We investigated putative Tfh cells from lymphoid tissues and blood of healthy pigs by using cross-reactive antibodies for inducible T-cell costimulator (ICOS) and B-cell lymphoma 6 (Bcl-6). In lymph nodes, we identified a CD4
