Disease relevance of Cd40lg

 

Psychiatry related information on Cd40lg

  • Identification of CD40 ligand in Alzheimer's disease and in animal models of Alzheimer's disease and brain injury [7].
  • Immunization with free Id and an IgG-CD40L fusion protein, which was identical in structure to Id-CD40L but lost the Id determinant, resulted in significant lower anti-Id responses, indicating that physical linkage between the tumor antigen and CD40L was required for the optimal immune response [8].
  • Using this new tool of memory T cell analysis, we demonstrate that CD8(+) T cell priming in the absence of T cell help or CD40L specifically alters the generation of the effector memory T cell subset, which appears to be crucial for immediate memory responses and long-term maintenance of effective protective immunity [9].
  • Blockade of the CD40/CD154 pathway enhances T-cell-depleted allogeneic bone marrow engraftment under nonmyeloablative and irradiation-free conditioning therapy [10].
 

High impact information on Cd40lg

  • CD40-CD154-mediated contact-dependent signals between B and T cells are required for the generation of thymus dependent (TD) humoral immune responses [11].
  • This B cell fate decision is determined by the concerted action of two surface proteins on activated T cells, CD40-and Fas-ligands (CD40L and FasL), whose effects are switched by signals from the B cell antigen receptor (BCR) [12].
  • Foreign antigens that stimulate the BCR acutely cause CD40L and FasL to promote clonal proliferation [12].
  • Here we show a crucial role for host MHC class I-dependent NK cell reactivity for allograft tolerance in mice induced through either costimulation blockade using CD154-specific antibody therapy or by targeting LFA-1 (also known as CD11a) [13].
  • Additional studies indicate that CD154-specific antibody-induced allograft tolerance is perforin dependent [13].

Associations of Cd40lg with chemical compounds

  • In contrast, CD40-/- mutant mice responded normally to the T cell-independent (TI) antigens, 2,4,6-trinitrophenyl (TNP)-LPS and TNP-Ficoll [20].
  • We studied the importance of CD40-CD154 in both responses using the reporter Ag popliteal lymph node assay in which selectively acting drugs generate clearly polarized type 1 (streptozotocin) or type 2 (D-penicillamine, diphenylhydantoin) responses to a constant coinjected Ag in the same mouse strain [22].
  • The effect of IL-4 was particularly noteworthy: this cytokine inhibited (LPS + IFN-gamma)-induced IL-12 production, whereas it potentiated the production of IL-12 induced by CD40L [14].
  • Binding studies with E129/G and E129/A gp39 point mutants showed that this residue does not contribute directly to CD40/gp39 binding but that its substitution with a glycine disrupts the gp39 structure [23].
  • Multiple cytokines sharing the common receptor gamma chain can induce CD154/CD40 ligand expression by human CD4+ T lymphocytes via a cyclosporin A-resistant pathway [24].
 

Physical interactions of Cd40lg

  • However, primary T cells preactivated via CD3 alone cannot induce B cell proliferation; we have shown previously that costimulation of T cells via CD3 and CD28 stabilizes the expression of the CD40L, which we propose contributes to their capacity to act as competent helper-effector cells [25].
 

Regulatory relationships of Cd40lg

  • Surprisingly, T cells, from CD40L-deficient mice induce similar levels of B7-1 and B7-2 as do wild-type T cells [26].
  • Previous studies from this laboratory have shown that simultaneous blockade of CD28 and CD40 can prevent this lethal reaction by inhibiting the production of IFN-gamma [27].
  • Moreover, in the presence of gamma interferon, anti-CD40 monoclonal antibody (MAb) activated TNFR-deficient macrophages [28].
  • However, the CD40/CD40L interaction is less important for the generation of enhanced CTL activity than for the expression of an elevated level of B7-2 [29].
  • Signaling through CD40 ligand decreases CD80 expression on murine Langerhans cells and enhances IL-12 p40 production [30].
