When an antigen is bound to a class II MHC protein, it can activate helper T cells. Helper T cells play a critical role in initiating and coordinating immune responses by releasing various signaling molecules and activating other immune cells.
Helper T cells activate killer T cells.
Antigen-presenting cells (APCs) such as dendritic cells bind with antigens and present them to B cells, T cells, and macrophages, leading to their activation. This process is crucial for initiating immune responses against pathogens and foreign substances in the body.
B cells interacting with helper T cells are stimulated to differentiate when the helper T cells provide signals, such as cytokines like IL-4 or IL-21, that activate the B cells. This interaction helps the B cells undergo class switching, somatic hypermutation, and develop into memory B cells or plasma cells, leading to an enhanced immune response.
Helper T cells do not directly eliminate pathogens themselves. Instead, they help activate other immune cells such as B cells and cytotoxic T cells to target and destroy pathogens. Helper T cells release signaling molecules called cytokines that orchestrate the immune response against the disease.
If im correct, helper t-cells activate: b-cells that mark viruses and make them stick together, killer t-cells --which attack macrophages and infected cells, and memory b-cells, which remember how to stop viruses, this i believe is called active immunity

T helper cells (CD4 T cells) serve to guide the development of adaptive (acquired) immune responses. Once they are activated and instructed by cells of the innate (natural) immune system, they "help" to activate cytotoxic (CD8) T cells and B cells (antibody producers). In the case of viruses T helper cells, once polarized, will produce signaling molecules (such as IL-2) that alert the CD8 T cells to the infection and will help activate B cells and will instruct them as to which flavor or antibody is best to produce. The CD4 T cells will also release other signaling proteins (such as Interferons) that help get rid of the virus.

Within a T4 cell, various processes related to the immune response take place. T4 cells are helper T cells that coordinate and regulate the immune system by communicating with other immune cells. They help activate B cells to produce antibodies and activate cytotoxic T cells to destroy infected cells.
No, plasma cells and helper T cells are different types of immune cells. Plasma cells are a type of B cell that produces antibodies, while helper T cells are a type of T cell that helps activate other immune cells, including B cells.
