Overview

Show »« Hide

Checkpoint proteins include co-inhibitory and co-stimulatory receptors on immune effectors cells. Blocking monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to co-inhibitory receptors such as PD-1 and CTLA4 have sucessfully entered clinical practice as cancer immunotherapies. Co-stimulatory receptors such as GITR, ICOS and OX40 are being targeted by immunostimulatory mAbs in preclinical and clinical development programmes [3,14].

Comment

CD28 is expressed on the surface of T cells and is required for the co-stimulatory signal essential for the activation and survival of T cells. CD28 acts in concert with the T cell receptor to stimulate cytokine release. The B7 proteins CD80 and CD86 on the surface of antigen presenting cells bind CD28.
As a drug target, CD28 modulation is being investigated as a treatment for autoimmume conditions.

Comment	LAG3 is a negative regulator of T cells (a check point immunomodulator) [9]. It is evolutionarily related to CD4 and both proteins share conserved structural motifs, despite only being ~20% homologous at the amino acid level. Divergent biological functions likely reside in their cytoplasmic domains which contain unique structural and molecular differences.
