T-cell co-stimulatory blockade in transplantation: two steps forward one step back!

INTRODUCTION: The concern about nephrotoxicity with calcineurin inhibitors led to the search of novel agents for immunosuppression. Based on the requirement of T-cell co-stimulatory signals to fully activated naïve T…

Serine protease inhibitor 6 plays a critical role in protecting murine granzyme B-producing regulatory T cells.

Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a pivotal role in the maintenance of immune tolerance and hold great promise as cell therapy for a variety of immune-mediated diseases. However, the cellular…

Jagged2-signaling promotes IL-6-dependent transplant rejection.

The Notch pathway is an important intercellular signaling pathway that plays a major role in controlling cell fate. Accumulating evidence indicates that Notch and its ligands present on antigen-presenting cells…

B7h (ICOS-L) maintains tolerance at the fetomaternal interface.

In a successful pregnancy, the semiallogeneic fetus is not rejected by the maternal immune system, which implies tolerance mechanisms protecting fetal tissues from maternal immune attack. Here we report that…

Role of the PD-1 pathway in the immune response.

Understanding immunoregulatory mechanisms is essential for the development of novel interventions to improve long-term allograft survival. Programmed death 1 (PD-1) and its ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2, have emerged as critical…
