Antigen presentation by APC (antigen presenting cell) stimulates naive CD4+ T cells (TH0) to become mature "helper" CD4+ cells (TH1 and TH2). APCs such as macrophages and dendritic cells produce cytokines (mainly IL-12 and IL-10) that contribute to the preferential expansion of TH1- or TH2-type cells.
APCs produce cytokine to convert naive T-cell to TH1 or 2.
Naive T-cells do not convert another naive T-cell to helper cells 1 or 2.
Yes, Toll like receptor (TLR) joins MHC II to mediate innate immunity while T-cell receptor (TCR) joins MHC II for effective adaptive immune response.
