A computational study of co-inhibitory immune complex assembly at the interface between T cells and antigen presenting cells.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2021
The activation and differentiation of T-cells are mainly directly by their co-regulatory receptors. T lymphocyte-associated protein-4 (CTLA-4) and programed cell death-1 (PD-1) are two of the most important co-regulatory receptors.

Genetic and serological heterogeneity of the supertypic HLA-B locus specificities Bw4 and Bw6 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Gene cloning and sequencing of the HLA-B locus split antigens B38 (B16.1) and B39 (B16.2) allowed localization of their subtypic as well as their public specificities HLA-Bw4 or -Bw6 to the c~-helical region of the c~ 1 domain flanked by the amino acid ...

The Role of Co-inhibitory Signaling Pathways in Transplantation and Tolerance

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2012
Negative costimulatory molecules, acting through so-called inhibitory pathways, play a crucial role in the control of T cell responses. This negative ‘second signal’ opposes TCR activation and leads to downregulation of T cell proliferation and promotes ...

Antitumor activity of the investigational B7-H3 antibody-drug conjugate, vobramitamab duocarmazine, in preclinical models of neuroblastoma

open access: yesJournal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2023
Introduction B7-H3 is a potential target for pediatric cancers, including neuroblastoma (NB). Vobramitamab duocarmazine (also referred to as MGC018 and herein referred to as vobra duo) is an investigational duocarmycin-based antibody-drug conjugate (ADC)

Growth of donor-derived dendritic cells from the bone marrow of murine liver auograft recipients in response to granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Allografts of the liver, which has a comparatively heavy leukocyte content compared with other vascularized organs, are accepted permanently across major histocompatibility complex barriers in many murine strain combinations without immunosuppressive ...

Cell type specific regulation of immunological synapse dynamics by B7 ligand recognition

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2016
B7 proteins CD80 (B7-1) and CD86 (B7-2) are expressed on most antigen presenting cells and provide critical costimulatory or inhibitory input to T cells via their T-cell expressed receptors: CD28 and CTLA-4. CD28 is expressed on effector and regulatory T

Emerging immunopharmacological targets in multiple sclerosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Inflammatory demyelination of the central nervous system (CNS) is the hallmark of multiple sclerosis (MS), a chronic debilitating disease that affects more than 2.5 million individuals worldwide. It has been widely accepted, although not proven, that the

Targeting CTLA-4 in Cancer: Biological Insights with a Focus on Renal Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesAnnals of Urologic Oncology, 2022
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a complex group of malignant tumors characterized by immunosuppression and high invasiveness. In the majority of patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma, treatment fails to achieve a complete cure post-treatment. Efforts

Anti-programmed cell death protein-1/ligand-1 therapy in different cancers. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Immunologic checkpoint blockade with antibodies against the programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) or its ligand (PD-L1) is an effective method for reversing cancer immunosuppression and thereby promoting immune responses against several cancer types ...

High expression of B7-H3 on stromal cells defines tumor and stromal compartments in epithelial ovarian cancer and is associated with limited immune activation

open access: yesJournal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2019
Background B7-H3 and B7-H4 are highly expressed by many human malignancies making them attractive immunotherapeutic targets. However, their expression patterns and immune contexts in epithelial ovarian cancer have not been well characterized.
