Studies Using Antigen-Presenting Cells Lacking Expression of Both B7-1 (CD80) and B7-2 (CD86) Show Distinct Requirements for B7 Molecules During Priming Versus Restimulation of Th2 But Not Th1 Cytokine Production
1998-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Abstract The differentiation of CD4+ T cells into a Th1 vs Th2 phenotype profoundly influences the outcome of autoimmune and infectious diseases. B7 costimulation has been shown to affect the production of both Th1 and Th2 cytokines, depending on the system studied. There is, consequently, great interest in manipulating the B7 costimulatory signal for therapeutic purposes. To optimally manipulate this key immunore...
