Murine B7-H3 Is a Negative Regulator of T Cells
Open accessAbstract
T cell activation is regulated by the innate immune system through positive and negative costimulatory molecules. B7-H3 is a novel B7-like molecule with a putative receptor on activated T cells. Human B7-H3 was first described as a positive costimulator, most potently inducing IFN-gamma production and cellular immunity. In this study we examined the expression and function of mouse B7-H3. B7-H3 is mostly expressed on professional APCs; its expression on dendritic cells appears to be up-regulated by LPS. In contrast to human B7-H3, we found that mouse B7-H3 protein inhibited T cell activation and effector cytokine production. An antagonistic mAb to B7-H3 enhanced T cell proliferation in vitro and led to exacerbated experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in vivo. Therefore, mouse B7-H3 serves as a negative regulator of T cell activation and function.

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.
