摘要: Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) plays a critical role in peripheral tolerance. However, regulatory pathways initiated by the interactions of CTLA-4 with B7 counterligands expressed on antigen-presenting cells are not completely understood. We show here that long-term survival pancreatic islet allografts induced soluble fusion protein CTLA-4-immunoglobulin (CTLA-4-Ig) is contingent upon effective tryptophan catabolism host. In vitro, we CTLA-4-Ig regulates cytokine-dependent B7-expressing dendritic cells. These data suggest modulation means which functions vivo and acts as ligand for receptor molecules transduce intracellular signals.
