1 14512535 Importantly, we instituted three different vaccination regimens to test the efficacy of DNA vaccines encoding gp120 and CTLA4:gp120 in the induction of both cellular (CD8(+)) and antibody responses.
2 15919138 Primed T cells of CTLA-4(+)B7-1(+/-) phenotype acted as regulatory T cells by inhibiting IFNgamma production by re-stimulated CTLA-4(-)B7-1(-) cells, and this was reversed by antibodies against IL-10 or TGF-beta1.
3 15919138 Both B7-1wa/Ig and CTLA-4/Ig, which bind to CTLA-4 and B7-1/B7-2 respectively, enhanced IFNgamma production, but not the proliferation or IL-4 release in mixed T-cell populations containing these two cell types.
4 15919138 In contrast, CTLA-4(-)B7-1(-) T cells produced IFNgamma which was not affected by B7-1wa/Ig or CTLA-4/Ig.
5 16896154 Regulatory T (T(reg)) cells are a subset of CD25(+)CD4(+) T cells that constitutively express high levels of cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) and suppress T-cell activation and effector functions.
6 16896154 CTLA-4 blockade decreased expression of the tryptophan-depleting enzyme IDO and the level of the suppressive cytokine transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) in tissues.
7 16896154 CTLA-4 blockade was associated with decreased viral RNA levels in lymph nodes and an increase in the effector function of both SIV-specific CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells.
8 17215523 In contrast to expectations, BrdU incorporation experiments demonstrated that CTLA-4 expression was associated with normal or even enhanced in vivo proliferation of virus-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cells following acute lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus or vaccinia virus infection.
9 17215523 When compared with CTLA-4- T cells directly ex vivo, CTLA-4+ T cells also exhibited normal antiviral effector functions following stimulation with peptide-coated cells, virus-infected cells, plate-bound anti-CD3/anti-CTLA-4, or the cytokines IL-12 and IL-18.
10 17318654 Here, we demonstrate a biological synergy between CTLA-4 blockade and active vaccine therapy consisting of recombinant vaccinia and avipox viruses expressing carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and three T cell costimulatory molecules to enhance antitumor effects.
11 19107404 C57BL/6 (H-2b) mice immunized with low dose of the fusion protein (10 microg) produced higher titer antibody and stronger specific CTL response, and expressed higher levels of IFN-gamma and IL-12, compared with those immunized with HPVml6E7 only or admixture of HPVml6E7 and CTLA4, or PBS; and were protected from lethal dose tumor challenge.
12 19187432 We observed that while the antibody had little effect on the IFN-gamma ELISpot response, CTLA-4 blockade enhanced antigen-specific cellular proliferation in both CD4(+) and CD8(+)T-cell compartments.
13 19008459 Moreover, ERp5, a closely related disulfide isomerase involved in major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I chain-related protein A (MICA) shedding, also evoked potent humoral reactions in diverse solid and hematologic malignancy patients who responded to GM-CSF-secreting tumor cell vaccines or antibody blockade of cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4).
14 19240168 Various monoclonal antibodies (mAb) target immune system molecules to enhance immunity by costimulating T cells (i.e., CD137, OX40, CD40, GITR) or interfering in coinhibitory signals (i.e., CTLA-4, PD-1).
15 19738077 Here we show that, like GM-CSF, the cytokine Flt3 ligand (Flt3L) expressed in B16 and coupled with CTLA-4 blockade promotes both prophylactic and therapeutic rejection of B16.
16 20804089 The most significant forms of immunotherapy currently include the interferons, interleukin-2 and antibody therapy directed against a specific T-lymphocyte associated antigen (CTLA-4).
17 21074057 Murine experiments also suggested that CTLA-4 abrogation might function via important effects on natural T-regulatory cells that were CD4(+), CD25(+high), and FOXp3(+), but this has not been borne out in experiments using peripheral blood mononuclear cells from patients treated with anti-CTLA-4 antibodies, and unlike in animals, in humans the exact mechanism(s) by which CTLA-4 abrogation induced an anti-tumor effect is still unclear.
18 21074057 Abrogation of PD-1 functions via different immune signaling pathways than CTLA-4 and is likely to have a different spectrum of effects than blocking CTLA-4.
19 21148794 Notably, ?50% of Tc17 cells also expressed the co-inhibitory molecule CTLA-4, and only a minority (<20%) expressed granzyme B suggesting that these cells possess more of a regulatory than cytotoxic phenotype.
20 19658096 This activity could not be accounted for by the expression of IL-10, TGF-beta, FOXP3 or CTLA-4, but proliferating T cells expressed high levels of CD95, indicating a pro-apoptotic phenotype.
21 21559358 Antibodies which block CTLA-4 or which activate 4-1BB can promote the rejection of some murine tumors, but fail to cure poorly immunogenic tumors like B16 melanoma as single agents.
22 21559358 We find that combining ?CTLA-4 and ?4-1BB antibodies in the context of a Flt3-ligand, but not a GM-CSF, based B16 melanoma vaccine promoted synergistic levels of tumor rejection. 4-1BB activation elicited strong infiltration of CD8+ T-cells into the tumor and drove the proliferation of these cells, while CTLA-4 blockade did the same for CD4+ effector T-cells.
23 21559358 The addition of CTLA-4 blockade further increased IFN-? production from CD4+ effector T-cells in the vaccine draining node and the tumor.
24 19462377 We demonstrate that Treg expression of CTLA-4 is essential for Treg control of lymphopenia-induced CD4 T-cell expansion.
25 19462377 Despite IL-10 expression, CTLA-4-deficient Treg were unable to control the expansion of CD4(+) target cells in a lymphopenic environment.
26 21465316 Anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) antibodies, such as ipilimumab, have generated measurable immune responses to Melan-A, NY-ESO-1, and gp100 antigens in metastatic melanoma.
27 21935390 Interestingly, although CTLA-4 blockade alone did not enhance IFN-? responses it did increase the proliferative capacity of the CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells.
