1 16988005 CD40 ligand (CD40L) and GITR ligand (glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor-related protein ligand [GITRL]) are tumor necrosis factor superfamily molecules that can be used as vaccine adjuvants.
2 19115935 Glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor (GITR) is a molecule that is constitutively expressed on CD4(+) Treg cells, and antibodies or natural ligands binding this molecule can impair Treg cell suppression.
3 16651447 We found that ligation of GITR with DTA-1 just before the second, but not the first, of 3 weekly DNA immunizations enhanced primary CD8(+) T-cell responses against the melanoma differentiation antigens gp100 and tyrosinase-related protein 2/dopachrome tautomerase and increased protection from a lethal challenge with B16 melanoma.
