Expression and T cell Regulatory Action of the PD-1 Immune Checkpoint in the Ovary and Fallopian Tube
2020-06-07
Abstract excerpt
The P rogrammed Cell D eath Protein-1 (PD-1/PDCD-1/CD279) checkpoint has powerful immunomodulatory action, including in the context of cancer. PD-1 receptor activation by its ligands (PD-L1/2) is associated with downregulated immune response, and tumor cells can avoid surveillance via PD-1 and/or ligand expression. While receptor expression is largely limited to lymphoid, myeloid, and tumor cells, we show that...
