Loss of CD40 ligand (CD40L) expression or function results in X-linked hyper-immunoglobulin (Ig)M syndrome (X-HIGM), characterized by recurrent infections due to impaired immunoglobulin class-switching and somatic hypermutation. Previous attempts using retroviral gene transfer to correct murine CD40L expression restored immune function; however, treated mice developed lymphoproliferative diseas...
BACKGROUND The CD40 ligand (CD40L) on activated T cells and platelets may be activating matrix metalloproteinases, inducing procoagulant activity, and be involved in the pathogenesis of acute coronary syndromes by promoting plaque rupture in atheroma. METHODS AND RESULTS To study the role of CD40L-CD40 interaction in coronary disease, we analyzed levels of soluble (s) and membrane-bound CD40L...
The CD40-CD40L interaction plays a critical role in both humoral and cellular immune responses and interfering antibodies have been suggested as an effective approach for the treatment of lymphomas and autoimmune diseases. In this study we have profiled a panel of mouse antihuman CD40 monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs), regarding their CD40 binding affinity and epitope-specificity relative to the CD...
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), implicated in numerous human diseases, including lymphoid malignancies, persistently infects peripheral B cells and transforms them into lymphoblastoid cell lines. Here we found that EBV equally infected B cells from patients with X-linked hyper IgM syndrome and those from healthy donors; however, it hardly transformed X-linked hyper IgM syndrome B cells, because of th...
OBJECTIVE Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) display increased apoptosis of bone marrow (BM) CD34+ hematopoietic progenitor cells. This study was undertaken to evaluate the expression of CD40 and CD40L in the BM of SLE patients, and to explore the possible involvement of these molecules in apoptosis of CD34+ cells. METHODS The proportion and survival characteristics of CD40+ cel...
For many ligands of the TNF family, trimer stability and oligomerization status are crucial determinants of receptor activation. However, for the immunostimulatory ligands CD27L, CD40L, 41BBL, and glucocorticoid-induced TNF receptor ligand (GITRL) detailed information regarding these requirements is lacking. Here, we comprehensively evaluated the effect of trimer stability and oligomerization o...
Stimulation of CD40 or Toll-Like Receptors (TLR) has potential for tumor immunotherapy. Combinations of CD40 and TLR stimulation can be synergistic, resulting in even stronger dendritic cell (DC) and CD8+ T cell responses. To evaluate such combinations, established B16F10 melanoma tumors were injected every other day X 5 with plasmid DNA encoding a multimeric, soluble form of CD40L (pSP-D-CD40L...
Title of Document: THE DEVELOPMENT AND CHARACTERIZATION OF TRANSGENIC LEISHMANIA MAJOR EXPRESSING MURINE CD40L. Ann Elizabeth Field, Ph.D., 2007 Directed By: David Mosser, Professor, Cell Biology and Molecular Genetics Leishmanization is the inoculation of live Leishmania into the host to vaccinate against subsequent infections. This approach has been largely discontinued due to safety concerns...
Blockade of TNF-related activation-induced cytokine (TRANCE)-receptor activator of NF-kappaB (RANK) interaction reverses healing in CD40L(-/-) mice infected with Leishmania major. Although previous studies demonstrated a requirement for CD40-CD40L interaction in production of IL-12 and the development of resistance to Leishmania infection, we recently showed that CD40L(-/-) mice control infecti...
The envelope glycoprotein trimer mediates HIV-1 entry into cells. The trimer is flexible, fluctuating between closed and more open conformations and sometimes sampling the fully open, CD4-bound form. We hypothesized that conformational flexibility and transient exposure of non-neutralizing, immunodominant epitopes could hinder the induction of broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs). We therefo...
