Species TM AA Chromosomal Location Gene Symbol Gene Name Reference
Human 1 534 15q24.1 CD276 CD276 molecule 11
Mouse 1 316 9 B Cd276 CD276 antigen 11
Rat 1 316 8q24 Cd276 Cd276 molecule
Gene and Protein Information Comments
Multiple transcript variants and protein isoforms are produced from the human gene. Human B7-H3b (an isoform with four Ig-like domains that results from gene duplication and differential splicing) is the major isoform expressed in several tissues [11].

Antibody Comments
A radio-iodinated monoclonal called [131I]-omburtomab (humanized from a mouse monoclonal designated 8H9) [1,9] that targets B7-H3 expressing cancer cells is being developed by Y-mAbs Therapeutics. It has been granted FDA breakthrough therapy designation for pediatric relapsed/refractory metastatic neuroblastoma with central nervous system or leptomeningeal metastasis. A Phase 2/3 clinical trial (NCT03275402) in neuroblastoma is underway (as of March 2019).
Immunopharmacology Comments
B7-H3 is an immunoregulatory receptor involved in T cell activation and IFN-γ production [5-6]. B7-H3 is primarily expressed on the cell membranes of solid tumours, with limited expression by normal tissues [3]. It is reported to protect cancer cells from NK cells effector functions [2,4]. B7-H3 is an actively pursued immuno-oncology molecular target [3,12].

Anti-BH-73 assets in clinical pipelines include:
Omburtamab (phase 2; Y-Mabs Therapeutics)
Enoblituzumab (MGA271; Phase 2; Macrogenics)
Orlotamab (MGD009, CD3/B7-H3 bispecific; Phase 1; Macrogenics)
and preclinical leads MGC018 (ADC; Macrogenics), DS-7300 (ADC; Daiichi Sankyo), HuB7-H3 and omburtamab-DTPA (Y-Mabs Therapeutics).
Cell Type Associations
Immuno Cell Type:  Natural killer cells
Cell Ontology Term:   natural killer cell (CL:0000623)
Comment:  B7-H3 expression is induced in NK cells by inflammatory cytokines and by phorbol myristate acetate/ionomycin exposure [5].
Immuno Cell Type:  Macrophages & monocytes
Cell Ontology Term:   monocyte (CL:0000576)
Comment:  B7-H3 expression is induced in monocytes by inflammatory cytokines and by phorbol myristate acetate/ionomycin exposure [5].
Immuno Process Associations
Immuno Process:  T cell (activation)
Immuno Process:  Immune regulation
Immuno Process:  Cytokine production & signalling
Immuno Process:  Chemotaxis & migration
Immuno Process:  Cellular signalling
Immuno Process:  Inflammation
General Comments
B7-H3 is a molecular target for oncology drug development [8,10].
This protein contains an immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain that resembles the antibody variable domain, that has been coined the 'V-set domain'. The genes for all human V-set domain containing proteins are listed in HGNC gene group 590.
