B7-H1 agonists could prevent disseminated inflammation by desensitizing cell susceptibility to cytotoxic T-cells

The B7-H1/PD-1 immune co-inhibitory pathway is functionally bi-directional. We showed previously that B7-H1 could be widely induced on various types of cells and, in addition to be a ligand for PD-1 on T-cells, also serve as an anti-apoptotic receptor upon interacting with PD-1. We explored the role...
