Limited density of an antigen presented by RMA-S cells requires B7-1/CD28 signaling to enhance T-cell immunity at the effector phase. [PDF]
The association of B7-1/CD28 between antigen presenting cells (APCs) and T-cells provides a second signal to proliferate and activate T-cell immunity at the induction phase.

Alternative immune checkpoints in immunoregulatory profile of cancer stem cells
Tumor-mediated bypass of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy with anti-programmed death-1 (PD-1), anti-programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1, also called B7–H1 or CD274) or anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) is a challenge of ...

Augmented Innate and Adaptive Immune Responses Under Conditions of Diabetes–Filariasis Comorbidity
Metainflammation, as seen in chronic diabetes subjects, impairs immunity and increases the susceptibility to infections. In the present study, the effect of diabetes on immune response against filariasis was studied.

Does B7-1 expression confer antigen-presenting cell capacity to tumors in vivo? [PDF]
Tumors engineered to express the costimulatory molecule B7-1 can elicit CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL)-dependent antitumor responses in immunocompetent mice. It has been postulated that this result reflects direct priming of CTL by the modified tumor in vivo.

Keratinocyte expression of B7-1 in transgenic mice amplifies the primary immune response to cutaneous antigens. [PDF]
Resting epidermal keratinocytes do not express B7-1 and other known CD28 counterligands with costimulatory activity. The absence of these costimulators on keratinocytes correlates with their ability to preferentially induce T-cell anergy instead of T-cell activation.

B7-1 Engagement of Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte Antigen 4 Inhibits T Cell Activation in the Absence of CD28 [PDF]
Ligation of cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4) appears to inhibit T cell responses. Four mechanisms have been proposed to explain the inhibitory activity of CTLA4: competition for B7-1 and B7-2 binding by CD28; sequestration of signaling molecules away from CD28 via endocytosis; delivery of a signal that antagonizes a CD28 signal; and delivery of

Background The inflammatory response is indispensable for protective immunity, yet microbial pathogens often trigger an excessive response, ‘cytokine storm’, harmful to the host. Full T-cell activation requires interaction of costimulatory receptors B7-1(

Construction and Characterization of a Triple-Recombinant Vaccinia Virus Encoding B7-1, Interleukin 12, and a Model Tumor Antigen [PDF]
Construction of recombinant viruses that can serve as vaccines for the treatment of experimental murine tumors has recently been achieved. The cooperative effects of immune system modulators, including cytokines such as interleukin 12 (IL-12) and costimulatory molecules such as B7-1, may be necessary for activation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes.
