Targeting Costimulatory Molecules to Improve Antitumor Immunity
The full activation of T cells necessitates the concomitant activation of two signals, the engagement of T-cell receptor by peptide/major histocompatibility complex II and an additional signal delivered by costimulatory molecules. The best characterized costimulatory molecules belong to B7/CD28 and TNF/TNFR families and play crucial roles in the modulation of immune response and improvement of ...
متن کاملInduction of antitumor immunity by recombinant vaccinia viruses expressing B7-1 or B7-2 costimulatory molecules.
Activation of T cells requires at least two signals: an antigen-specific signal delivered through the T-cell receptor and a costimulatory signal mediated through molecules designated B7-1 and B7-2. Previous studies have shown that introduction of B7-1 and B7-2 into tumors using retroviral vectors has led to enhanced antitumor effects. A limiting factor for potential clinical applications using ...
متن کاملAntitumor immunity after vaccination with B lymphoma cells overexpressing a triad of costimulatory molecules.
BACKGROUND The costimulatory molecules B7-1, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), and leukocyte function-associated antigen-3 (LFA-3) play pivotal roles in the activation of T cells. We investigated whether in vivo vaccination with lymphoma cells infected with a recombinant, nonreplicating fowlpox (FP) virus encoding this triad of costimulatory molecules (TRICOM) could stimulate lymphoma...
متن کاملInduction of therapeutic T-cell immunity by tumor targeting with soluble recombinant B7-immunoglobulin costimulatory molecules.
Tumor targeting with immunomodulatory molecules is an attractive strategy to enhance the host's antitumor response. Expression of CD80 (B7-1) and CD86 (B7-2) costimulatory molecules in tumor cells has proven to be an efficient way to enhance their immunogenicity. Here, we studied the effects of tumor targeting with biotinylated recombinant soluble B7-1- and B7-2 immunoglobulin G molecules (bio-...
متن کاملBridging Innate and Adaptive Antitumor Immunity Targeting Glycans
Effective immunotherapy for cancer depends on cellular responses to tumor antigens. The role of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) in T-cell recognition and T-cell receptor repertoire selection has become a central tenet in immunology. Structurally, this does not contradict earlier findings that T-cells can differentiate between small hapten structures like simple glycans. Understanding T-c...
