Rational Development of LEA29Y (belatacept), a High‐Affinity Variant of CTLA4‐Ig with Potent Immunosuppressive Properties

TL;DR: An attempt to increase the biologic potency of the parent molecule a novel, modified version of CTLA4‐Ig, LEA29Y (belatacept), was constructed, resulting in a 10‐fold increase in potency in vitro and significant prolongation of renal allograft survival in a pre‐clinical primate model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Covalent Dimerization of CD28/CTLA-4 and Oligomerization of CD80/CD86 Regulate T Cell Costimulatory Interactions

TL;DR: Covalent receptor dimerization and ligand oligomerization are two key features of the CD28/CTLA-4/CD80/CD86 receptor system that control ligand binding and may regulate signal transduction by controlling the duration of receptor occupancy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of amino acid residues important for ligand binding to fas

TL;DR: The binding of FasL involves residues in two domains that correspond to positions critical for ligand binding in other family members but are conserved between murine and human Fas.
Journal Article

In Vitro and In Vivo Activities of a Doxorubicin Prodrug in Combination with Monoclonal Antibody β-Lactamase Conjugates

TL;DR: In vivo toxicity and pharmacokinetics studies in athymic female nu/nu mice revealed that C-Dox was at least 7-fold less toxic than Dox (on a molar basis), despite the fact that a ≥320-fold greater area-under-the-curve of C- Dox compared to Dox was obtained 0–2 h after administration of the two agents.
