Dual immunoregulatory pathways of 4-1BB signaling.
Dual immunoregulatory pathways of 4-1BB signaling. Vinay DS,Cha K, Kwon BS Abstract It is perhaps rare to encounter among the various immunologically competent receptor-ligand pairs that a single cell surface determinant unleashes both a hidden suppressive function and costimulation. 4-1BB, an activation-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor family member chiefly viewed as a powerful T-cell costimulatory molecule, is one such example. Accumulated evidence in recent years uncovered an unknown facet of in vivo 4-1BB signaling (i.e., "active suppression"). Although in vitro signaling via 4-1BB is shown to support both CD4(+) and CD8(+) T-cell responses, the same induces a predominant CD8(+) T-cell response suppressing CD4(+) T-cell function when applied in vivo. How, when, and why such dual immunoregulatory effect of anti-4-1BB monoclonal antibody (MAB) comes into play is currently the focus of intense research. Existing data, although not complete, uncover several important aspects of in vivo 4-1BB signaling in the amelioration or exacerbation of various immune disorders. Despite minor disagreements, a majority agree that upregulation of interferon (IFN)-gamma is critical to anti-4-1BB MAB therapy in addition to immune modulators such as interleukin 2, transforming growth factor beta, and indolamine 2,3-dioxygenase(5), all of which contribute greatly to the success of anti-4-1BB MAB-based immunotherapy. Anti-4-1BB MAB-mediated expansion of novel CD11c(+)CD8(+) T cells is additional weaponry that appears critical for its in vivo suppressive function. These CD11c(+)CD8(+) T cells express high levels of IFN-gamma, become effective killers, and mediate selective suppression of CD4(+) T cells. In this review, we discuss the dual nature (costimulatory and suppressive) of 4-1BB-mediated immune regulation, its current status, future direction, and its impact on the immune system, with special reference to its immunotherapy. 논문 링크(클릭시 이동)

Abstract

It is perhaps rare to encounter among the various immunologically competent receptor-ligand pairs that a single cell surface determinant unleashes both a hidden suppressive function and costimulation. 4-1BB, an activation-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor family member chiefly viewed as a powerful T-cell costimulatory molecule, is one such example. Accumulated evidence in recent years uncovered an unknown facet of in vivo 4-1BB signaling (i.e., "active suppression"). Although in vitro signaling via 4-1BB is shown to support both CD4(+) and CD8(+) T-cell responses, the same induces a predominant CD8(+) T-cell response suppressing CD4(+) T-cell function when applied in vivo. How, when, and why such dual immunoregulatory effect of anti-4-1BB monoclonal antibody (MAB) comes into play is currently the focus of intense research. Existing data, although not complete, uncover several important aspects of in vivo 4-1BB signaling in the amelioration or exacerbation of various immune disorders. Despite minor disagreements, a majority agree that upregulation of interferon (IFN)-gamma is critical to anti-4-1BB MAB therapy in addition to immune modulators such as interleukin 2, transforming growth factor beta, and indolamine 2,3-dioxygenase(5), all of which contribute greatly to the success of anti-4-1BB MAB-based immunotherapy. Anti-4-1BB MAB-mediated expansion of novel CD11c(+)CD8(+) T cells is additional weaponry that appears critical for its in vivo suppressive function. These CD11c(+)CD8(+) T cells express high levels of IFN-gamma, become effective killers, and mediate selective suppression of CD4(+) T cells. In this review, we discuss the dual nature (costimulatory and suppressive) of 4-1BB-mediated immune regulation, its current status, future direction, and its impact on the immune system, with special reference to its immunotherapy.
