CTLA-4 Ligation Suppresses CD28-induced NF-κB and AP-1 Activity in Mouse T Cell Blasts

The effects of cytotoxic lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) on CD3/CD28 monoclonal antibody (mAb) activation of CD4+/CTLA-4+ blastoid T cells were studied in an in vitro model system. As previously reported, coligation of CTLA-4 mAb results in suppression of T cell proliferation and cytokine productio…
