AbstractCombination therapy with anti‐cytotoxic T lymphocyte‐associated protein 4 (CTLA‐4) and anti‐programmed death‐1 (PD‐1) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) has dramatically improved the prognosis of patients with multiple types of cancer, including renal cell carcinoma (RCC).

Polymorphism analysis of the CTLA-4 gene in paracoccidioidomycosis patients [PDF]
The CTLA-4 protein is expressed in activated T cells and plays an essential role in the immune response through its regulatory effect on T cell activation.

Potent Inhibition of CTLA-4 Expression by an Anti-CTLA-4 Ribozyme
Blockading the negative-regulatory CTLA-4 receptor has emerged as a powerful strategy with clinical potential to enhance T-cell responses. Some experimental tumors, for example, are rejected when anti-CTLA-4 antibodies are administered in vivo. The concise target cells and downstream events, however, remain to be defined.

Anti-CTLA-4 Therapy for Malignant Mesothelioma [PDF]
Immunotherapy is an emerging therapeutic strategy with a promising clinical outcome in some solid tumors, particularly metastatic melanoma. One approach to immunotherapy is immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as blockage of CTLA-4 and PD-1/PD-L1.

Combination immunotherapy induces distinct T-cell repertoire responses when administered to patients with different malignancies. [PDF]
BackgroundCTLA-4 blockade with ipilimumab is Food and Drug Administration-approved for melanoma as a monotherapy and has been shown to modulate the circulating T-cell repertoire.

Peptide Blocking CTLA-4 and B7-1 Interaction
Discovery of the B7 family immune checkpoints such as CTLA-4 (CD152), PD-1 (CD279), as well as their ligands B7-1 (CD80), B7-2 (CD86), B7-H1 (PD-L1, CD274), and B7-DC (PD-L2, CD273), has opened new possibilities for cancer immunotherapy using monoclonal ...

The gut microbiota and immune checkpoint inhibitors. [PDF]
Although immunotherapy has been remarkably effective across multiple cancer types, there continues to be a significant number of non-responding patients. A possible factor proposed to influence the efficacy of immunotherapies is the gut microbiome.

CTLA-4 and PD-1 ligand gene expression in epithelial thyroid cancers [PDF]
The dysregulation of PD-1 ligands (PD-L1 and PD-L2) and CTLA-4 ligands (CD80 and CD86) represents a tumor strategy to escape the immune surveillance. Here, the expression of PD-L1, PD-L2, CD80 and CD86 was evaluated at mRNA level in 94 patients affected ...
