A Soluble Form of Lymphocyte Activation Gene-3 (IMP321) Induces Activation of a Large Range of Human Effector Cytotoxic Cells

The principal antitumor immune response is mediated through the activation of type 1 cytotoxic (Tc1) CD8 T cells, NK cells, and monocytes/macrophages. In this study, we investigated the potency of a clinical-grade soluble form of lymphocyte activation gene-3 protein (IMP321), a physiological high-af...

Zusammenfassung:The principal antitumor immune response is mediated through the activation of type 1 cytotoxic (Tc1) CD8 T cells, NK cells, and monocytes/macrophages. In this study, we investigated the potency of a clinical-grade soluble form of lymphocyte activation gene-3 protein (IMP321), a physiological high-affinity MHC class II binder, at inducing in PBMCs an appropriate cytotoxic-type response in short-term ex vivo assays. We found that IMP321 binds to a minority (
