IL-15 receptor alpha as the magic wand to boost the success of IL-15 antitumor therapies: The upswing of IL-15 transpresentation [PDF]

open access: yesPharmacology & Therapeutics, 2017
Interleukin (IL)-15 as a stand-alone therapy can activate the antitumor functions of immune effector cells resulting in significant tumor regression. Interestingly, combining IL-15 with the α-moiety of its receptor (IL-15Rα), also called IL-15 transpresentation, increases the in vivo half-life of IL-15 and enhances binding of IL-15 with cells ...

Combined IL-15/IL-15Rα Immunotherapy Maximizes IL-15 Activity In Vivo [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2006
Abstract IL-15 has substantial potential as an immunotherapeutic agent for augmenting immune responses. However, the activity of IL-15 is mediated by a unique mechanism in which the cytokine is transpresented by cell-bound high-affinity IL-15Rα to target cells expressing the IL-15Rβ and the common γ-chain.

IL-15, TIM-3 and NK cells subsets predict responsiveness to anti-CTLA-4 treatment in melanoma patients

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2017
Despite the success of immune checkpoint blockade in melanoma, the majority of patients do not respond. We hypothesized that the T and NK cell subset frequencies and expression levels of their receptors may predict responses and clinical outcome of anti ...

Cytoplasmic tail of IL-13Ralpha2 regulates IL-4 signal transduction

open access: yes, 2009
IL (interleukin)-4 and IL-13 are key cytokines in the pathogenesis of allergic inflammatory disease. IL-4 and IL-13 share many functional properties as a result of their utilization of a common receptor complex comprising IL-13Ralpha1 (IL-13 receptor ...
