Purpose Cluster of differentiation 40 (CD40) is required for retinal capillary degeneration in diabetic mice, a process mediated by the retinal endothelial cells (REC) death. However, CD40 activates prosurvival signals in endothelial cells. The purpose of this study was to identify a mechanism by which CD40 triggers programmed cell death (PCD) of RECs and address this paradox. Methods Human R...
OBJECTIVE It has been shown that CD40-TRAF6 axis in leukocytes plays a significant role in neointimal formation after carotid ligation. Because CD40 and TRAF6 are expressed not only in leukocytes but also in vascular cells, we examined the role of CD40 contributed by vascular wall cells in neointimal formation after carotid ligation in an atherogenic environment. METHODS AND RESULTS Both CD40...
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and activate innate immune cells to induce cytokines and co-stimulatory molecules such as CD40 and to enhance antigen presentation to T cells (1) that, upon activation, can either eliminate or support the pathogen (2). Herein, we propose that this duality in TLR functions results from their cross-talk with CD40....
This is an author produced version of a paper published in Leukemia & Lymphoma. This paper has been peer-reviewed but does not include the final publisher proof-corrections or journal pagination. "CD40 is a potential marker of favorable prognosis in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma treated with immunochemotherapy." Access to the published version may require journal subscription.

BACKGROUND CD40, also called Bp50, is a novel member of the TNF receptor superfamily. Based on its important role in multiple physiological and pathological processes, the CD40 signaling pathway has become a vital target for treating transplantation, autoimmune diseases and cancers. This study generated a protein fragment that disrupts this signaling pathway. RESULTS A DNA fragment encoding t...
CONTEXT Fibrocytes appear to participate in inflammation and tissue remodeling in patients with thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO). These patients have increased frequencies of circulating TSH receptor (TSHR)- and CD40-positive fibrocytes, suggesting TSHR and CD40 may play roles in proinflammatory cytokine production, which ultimately leads to orbital inflammation and tissue remodeling. ...
We investigated whether human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs) differed from tonsillar B cells in the set of cell fate genes they express constitutively and in the way these genes are affected after CD40 ligation. In particular, Bcl-2, TNF receptor-associated factor-2 (TRAF2), and TRAF4 were clearly inducible via CD40 in B cells but not in DCs. DCs, unlike B cells, were induced to increas...
Agonistic monoclonal antibodies to CD40 (CD40 mAbs) have a puzzling dual therapeutic effect in experimental animal models. CD40 mAbs induce tumor regression by potentiating antitumoral T-cell responses, yet they also have immunosuppressive activity in chronic autoimmune inflammatory processes. CD40 mAbs are thought to act on antigen presentation by dendritic cells (DCs) to T cells. DCs can be d...
The antagonism between the cytokines IFN-gamma and IL-4 is well documented, but the mechanism by which IL-4 inhibits IFN-gamma-induced gene expression is not clearly understood. CD40 is a type I transmembrane protein that is critical for proper functioning of the immune system. We have previously shown that IFN-gamma is the most potent inducer of CD40 expression by macrophages and microglia. In...
We have shown previously that dendritic cells (DC) produce IL-12 upon interaction with CD4+ T cells. Here we ask how this IL-12 production is induced and regulated. Quantitative PCR and in situ hybridization for IL-12 p40 and an ELISA specific for the p70 heterodimer were used to determine IL-12 production. We demonstrate that ligation of either CD40 or MHC class II molecules independently trig...
