Inhibitory receptors as targets for cancer immunotherapy [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, 2015
Inhibitory receptors expressed on T cells control immune responses while limiting autoimmunity. However, tumors can hijack these “checkpoints” for protection from immune attack. Tumor‐specific T cells that exhibit an exhausted, unresponsive phenotype express high levels of inhibitory receptors including CTLA4, PD1, and LAG3, among others.

Immune Inhibitory Receptors

Science, 2000
With the detailed description and analysis of several inhibitory receptor systems on lymphoid and myeloid cells, a central paradigm has emerged in which the pairing of activation and inhibition is necessary to initiate, amplify, and then terminate immune responses.

Modulators of the Inhibitory Glycine Receptor

ACS Chemical Neuroscience, 2020
The inhibitory glycine receptor is a member of the Cys-loop superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels. It is the principal mediator of rapid synaptic inhibition in the spinal cord and brainstem and plays an important role in the modulation of higher brain functions including vision, hearing, and pain signaling. Glycine receptor function is controlled by

The inhibitory neuronal glycine receptor

BioEssays, 1994
AbstractGlycine is a major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the spinal cord and in the brain stem, where it acts by activating a chloride conductance. The postsynaptic glycine receptor has been purified and contains two transmembrane subunits of 48 kDa (α) and 58 kDa (β), and a peripheral membrane protein of 93 kDa.

NMDA receptor function in inhibitory neurons

Neuropharmacology, 2021
N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are present in the majority of brain circuits and play a key role in synaptic information transfer and synaptic plasticity. A key element of many brain circuits are inhibitory GABAergic interneurons that in themselves show diverse and cell-type-specific NMDAR expression and function.

The regulation of lymphocyte activation by inhibitory receptors

Current Opinion in Immunology, 2004
The ability of activating immune recognition receptors on lymphocytes to regulate cellular activation and function can be profoundly altered by co-stimulation with inhibitory receptors. Inhibitory receptors, such as the MHC-recognizing inhibitory receptors expressed on NK cells and subpopulations of activated T cells, can fully block the generation of ...

Inhibitory receptors, ITIM sequences and phosphatases

Current Opinion in Immunology, 1997
A diverse group of inhibitory receptors, including FcgammaRII, killer cell inhibitory receptors, and B22, shares an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif (ITIM). Recent studies have shown that this motif, when phosphorylated on tyrosine, forms a docking site for the Src homology 2 recognition domains of the protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1 ...

Inhibitory receptors and allergy

Current Opinion in Immunology, 2002
Recent studies of the major cell types involved in the initiation and progression of allergic inflammation have revealed that they express an unexpectedly large number of surface receptors that inhibit the release of proinflammatory mediators from mast cells and basophils in vitro. Moreover, analyses of animals deficient in some of these receptors, for

Inhibitory neuropeptide receptors on macrophages

Microbes and Infection, 2001
The immune response, both in innate and adaptive immunity, is controlled at several levels, including signaling from the central nervous system. Neuropeptides released within the lymphoid organs modulate the immune response, either as stimulators or inhibitors.

Inhibitory Neurosteroids and the GABAA Receptor

2015
γ-Aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABAARs) are vital proteins that are engaged in regulating neural circuit activity in the central nervous system. Their effectiveness in this task is dependent on the extent of receptor modulation by naturally occurring ligands that are released in the brain.
