Journal ArticleDOI

B and T lymphocyte attenuator regulates T cell activation through interaction with herpesvirus entry mediator.

TL;DR: The conservation of the BTLA-HVEM interaction between mouse and human suggests that this system is an important pathway regulating lymphocyte activation and/or homeostasis in the immune response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thymic Medullary Epithelial Cell Differentiation, Thymocyte Emigration, and the Control of Autoimmunity Require Lympho–Epithelial Cross Talk via LTβR

TL;DR: It is shown that thymocytes and medullary epithelial cells (MECs) communicate via the lymphotoxin β receptor (LTβR) signaling axis, suggesting an unexpected role for LTβR signaling in central tolerance induction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeted Disruption of LIGHT Causes Defects in Costimulatory T Cell Activation and Reveals Cooperation with Lymphotoxin β in Mesenteric Lymph Node Genesis

TL;DR: In vivo evidence is provided for the first time for a cooperative role for LIGHT and LTβ in lymphoid organogenesis and indicates important costimulatory functions for LIGHTS in T cell activation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The tumor necrosis factor family member LIGHT is a target for asthmatic airway remodeling

TL;DR: Pharmacological inhibition of LIGHT using a fusion protein between the IgG Fc domain and lymphotoxin β receptor reduces lung fibrosis, smooth muscle hyperplasia and airway hyperresponsiveness in mouse models of chronic asthma, despite having little effect on airway eosinophilia.
