Characterization of Mouse and Human B7-H3 Genes
Abstract
T cell activation and immune function are regulated by costimulatory molecules of the B7 superfamily. Human B7-H3 is a recent addition to this family and has been shown to mediate T cell proliferation and IFN-γ production. In this work we describe the identification of the mouse B7-H3 homolog, which is ubiquitously expressed in a variety of tissues. Activated CD4 and CD8 T cells express a putative receptor that can be recognized by soluble mouse B7-H3-Ig molecules. While the mouse B7-H3 gene was found to contain a single copy, we discovered a novel isoform of human B7-H3 (named as B7-H3b hereafter) with four Ig-like domains that results from gene duplication and differential splicing. B7-H3b is the major isoform expressed in several tissues. This structural information suggests a genetic variation of the B7-H3 gene in mammalian species.

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.
