Abstract

Antigen-specific T cell activation depends on T cell receptor-ligand interaction and costimulatory signals generated when accessory molecules bind to their ligands, such as CD28 to the B7 (also called BB1) molecule. A soluble fusion protein of human CTLA-4 (a protein homologous to CD28) and the immunoglobulin (Ig) G1 Fc region (CTLA4Ig) binds to human and murine B7 with high avidity and blocks T cell activation in vitro. CTLA4Ig therapy blocked human pancreatic islet rejection in mice by directly affecting T cell recognition of B7 + antigen-presenting cells. In addition, CTLA4Ig induced long-term, donor-specific tolerance, which may have applications to human organ transplantation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
