Costimulatory blockade of the CD28 / CD80-86 / CTLA-4 balance in transplantation: impact on memory T cells?

CD28 and CTLA-4 are prototypal co-stimulatory and co-inhibitory cell surface signaling molecules interacting with CD80/86, known to be critical for immune response initiation and regulation, respectively. Initial bench-to-beside translation, two decades ago, resulted in the development of CTLA4-Ig,...
