The TNF receptor-ligands 4-1BB-4-1BBL and GITR-GITRL in NK cell responses
نویسنده
چکیده
Interactions between several tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-TNF receptor (TNFR) superfamily members that are expressed by T cells and natural killer (NK) cells and various other cell types modulate immune responses. This review summarizes the current understanding of how the TNF ligand-TNFR interactions 4-1BBL with 4-1BB, and GITRL with glucocorticoid-induced TNFR-related (GITR) regulate NK cell mediated antitumor responses and discuss its therapeutic implications.

4-1BB ligand modulates direct and Rituximab-induced NK-cell reactivity in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
NK cells play an important role in tumor immunosurveillance and largely contribute to the therapeutic success of anti-tumor antibodies like Rituximab. Here, we studied the role of the TNF family member 4-1BB ligand (4-1BBL) during the interaction of NK cells with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells. 4-1BBL was highly expressed on patient B-CLL cells in all 56 investigated cases. Signaling ...
متن کاملCD28-independent, TRAF2-dependent Costimulation of Resting T Cells by 4-1BB Ligand
4-1BB ligand (4-1BBL) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) family expressed on activated antigen-presenting cells. Its receptor, 4-1BB, is a member of the TNF receptor family expressed on activated CD4 and CD8 T cells. We have produced a soluble form of 4-1BBL using the baculovirus expression system. When coimmobilized on plastic with anti-CD3, soluble 4-1BBL induces interleukin (IL)-...
متن کاملSoluble CD137 (4-1BB) ligand is released following leukocyte activation and is found in sera of patients with hematological malignancies.
Expression of CD137 ligand (4-1BBL), a member of the TNF family of proteins, has been reported on several types of APCs, various carcinoma cells, and can be induced on activated T cells. In this study, we report that the soluble ligand was released constitutively at low levels from leukocytes and at higher levels following cellular activation. Release from cells was blocked by addition of a met...
متن کامل4-1BB ligand, a member of the TNF family, is important for the generation of antiviral CD8 T cell responses.
4-1BB (CD137) is a costimulatory molecule expressed on activated T cells and interacts with 4-1BB ligand (4-1BBL) on APCs. To investigate the role of 4-1BB costimulation for the development of primary immune responses, 4-1BBL-deficient (4-1BBL-/-) mice were infected with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV). 4-1BBL-/- mice were able to generate CTL and eliminate acute LCMV infection with n...
متن کامل4-1BB/4-1BBL Interaction Promotes Obesity-Induced Adipose Inflammation by Triggering Bidirectional Inflammatory Signaling in Adipocytes/Macrophages
Obesity-induced adipose inflammation is characterized by recruitment of macrophages to adipose tissue and release of inflammatory cytokines. 4-1BB, a costimulatory receptor, modulates inflammatory processes through interaction with its ligand 4-1BBL on immune cell surfaces. In this study, we examined whether a 4-1BB/4-1BBL interaction between adipocytes and macrophages participates in obesity-i...
