Role of CD86 (B7-2) in triggering of antigen-specific IgE antibody response by lipopolysaccharide [PDF]
The role of CD86 in triggering of ascaris extract-specific IgE antibody response by lipopolysaccharide was studied. The simultaneous administration of anti-CD86 antibody with ascaris extract and lipopolysaccharide prevented the production of IgE antibody response to ascaris extract.

The B7-2 (B70) costimulatory molecule expressed by monocytes and activated B lymphocytes is the CD86 differentiation antigen [PDF]
T-cell activation is initiated after T-cell receptor binding to antigen, but also requires interactions between costimulatory molecules expressed on antigen-presenting cells. An important costimulatory molecule expressed by monocytes and activated B lymphocytes has been recently identified and termed B7–2 or B70.

Intense Expression of the B7-2 Antigen Presentation Coactivator Is an Unfavorable Prognostic Indicator for Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma of Children and Adolescents [PDF]
Previous observations suggest that an immune response against thyroid carcinoma could be important for long-term survival. We recently found that infiltration of thyroid carcinoma by proliferating lymphocytes is associated with improved disease-free survival, but the factors that control lymphocytic infiltration and proliferation are largely unknown ...

CNS expression of B7-H1 regulates pro-inflammatory cytokine production and alters severity of Theiler's virus-induced demyelinating disease. [PDF]
The CNS is a unique organ due to its limited capacity for immune surveillance. As macrophages of the CNS, microglia represent a population originally known for the ability to assist neuronal stability, are now appreciated for their role in initiating and

Indirect recruitment of a CD40 signaling pathway in dendritic cells by B7-DC cross-linking antibody modulates T cell functions. [PDF]
The human IgM B7-DC XAb protects mice from tumors in both therapeutic and prophylactic settings. Its mechanism of action is mediated by its binding to B7-DC/PD-L2 molecules on the surface of dendritic cells (DCs) to induce a multimolecular cap and ...

CD154–CD40‐independent up‐regulation of B7‐2 on splenic antigen‐presenting cells and efficient T cell priming by staphylococcal enterotoxin A [PDF]
It has been demonstrated that in vivo T cell priming requires CD154-CD40 interaction, which is suggested to be critical in the induction of co-stimulatory activities on antigen-presenting cells (APC). In the current study, we demonstrate that in vivo administration of a high dose of a superantigen, staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA), could up-regulate ...

CD86 (B7–2) antigen on B cells from atopic patients shows selective, antigen‐specific upregulation
To determine whether B7 signals are associated with atopic responses in man, we assayed CD80 and CD86 expression on B cells and monocytes from atopic patients and controls. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 10 patients with perennial allergic rhinitis and from 10 normal subjects were cultured in the presence or absence of house‐dust‐mite antigen,

Effect of B7-2 and CD40 Signals from Activated Antigen-Presenting Cells on the Ability of Zwitterionic Polysaccharides To Induce T-Cell Stimulation [PDF]
ABSTRACTCarbohydrates have been thought to stimulate immune responses independently of T cells; however, zwitterionic polysaccharides (ZPSs) from the capsules of some bacteria elicit potent CD4+-T-cell responses in vivo and in vitro. We demonstrated that HLA-DR on professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) is required for ZPS-induced T-cell ...

Background: The dismal survival of glioblastoma (GBM) patients urgently calls for the development of new treatments. Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells are an attractive strategy, but preclinical and clinical studies in GBM have shown that ...
