Abstract excerpt
Introduction: Inhibitory receptors play a pivotal role in fine-tuning immune responses. The leukocyte receptor complex (LRC) encodes multiple receptor families, including the leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor (LILR) family, which next to activating receptors involves several inhibitory receptors. The LILRB1 and LILRB2 receptors are considered immune checkpoint inhibitors, which may interact with MHC class I...
