OX40/OX40 Ligand Interactions in T-Cell Regulation and Asthma
The OX40 receptor is preferentially expressed by T cells, and its cognate ligand OX40L is primarily expressed by antigen-presenting cells such as dendritic cells following activation by thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP). TSLP is released by the bronchial epithelium, airway smooth muscle, and some inflammatory cells in response to numerous insults such as allergens, viruses, and physical damag...
متن کاملOX40-OX40 ligand interaction through T cell-T cell contact contributes to CD4 T cell longevity.
Signals through the OX40 costimulatory receptor on naive CD4 T cells are essential for full-fledged CD4 T cell activation and the generation of CD4 memory T cells. Because the ligand for OX40 is mainly expressed by APCs, including activated B cells, dendritic cells, and Langerhans cells, the OX40-OX40 ligand (OX40L) interaction has been thought to participate in T cell-APC interactions. Althoug...
متن کاملOX40-OX40L interactions: a promising therapeutic target for allergic diseases?
Recent advances in understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms of atopy have shed light on potential targets for the development of new therapies for allergic diseases. In this issue of the JCI, Seshasayee et al. provide direct in vivo evidence that OX40 has critical roles in allergic inflammation mediated by thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) (see the related article beginning on page...
متن کاملThe Ox40/Ox40 Ligand Pathway Promotes Pathogenic Th Cell Responses, Plasmablast Accumulation, and Lupus Nephritis in NZB/W F1 Mice.
Ox40 ligand (Ox40L) locus genetic variants are associated with the risk for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE); however, it is unclear how Ox40L contributes to SLE pathogenesis. In this study, we evaluated the contribution of Ox40L and its cognate receptor, Ox40, using in vivo agonist and antagonist approaches in the NZB × NZW (NZB/W) F1 mouse model of SLE. Ox40 was highly expressed on several ...
متن کاملInterruption of the OX40-OX40 ligand pathway in LDL receptor-deficient mice causes regression of atherosclerosis.
Patients suffering from cardiovascular disease have well-established atherosclerotic lesions, rendering lesion regression of therapeutic interest. The OX40 (TNFRSF4)-OX40 ligand (OX40L; TNFSF4) pathway is important for the proliferation and survival of T cells, stimulates B cells, and is associated with cardiovascular disease. We hypothesized that interference with the OX40-OX40L pathway, in co...
