The tumor cells of the invention can be modified by transfection with nucleic acid encoding B7-2 and/or B7-3, by using an agent which induces or increases expression of B7-2 and/or B7-3 on the tumor cell or by coupling B7-2 and/or B7-3 to the tumor cell. Tumor cells modified to express B7-2 and/or B7-3 can be further modified to express B7. Tumor cells further modified to express MHC class I and/or class II molecules or in which expression of an MHC associated protein, the invariant chain, is inhibited are also disclosed. The modified tumor cells of the invention can be used in methods for treating a patient with a tumor, preventing or inhibiting metastatic spread of a tumor or preventing or inhibiting recurrence of a tumor. A method for specifically inducing a CD4+ T cell response against a tumor and a method for treating a tumor by modification of tumor cells in vivo are disclosed.

    摘要: Isolated ligands which bind a molecule expressed on the surface of T cells and induce antigen specific apoptosis in activated T cells are disclosed. Preferably, the T cell surface molecule is CTLA4 and the ligand is a monoclonal anti-CTLA4 antibody that binds to an epitope of CTLA4 distinct from the binding sites of B7-1 and B7-2. Upon binding of the antibody to CTLA4 on an activated T cell, in the presence of an antigenic signal, antigen specific apoptosis is induced. The invention also describes a novel natural CTLA4 ligand, distinct from B7-1 and B7-2, which mediates induction of apoptosis. Pharmaceutical compositions of anti-CTLA4 antibodies or other isolated CTLA4 ligands which can be administered to subjects to induce T cell apoptosis, thereby clonally deleting antigen specific T cells, such as alloreactive T cells in transplantation situations or autoreactive T cells in autoimmune disorders, are also disclosed. Methods for inducing T cell apoptosis in vitro with an anti-CTLA4 antibody or other ligand of the invention together with an antigen specific signal are also disclosed, e.g., for use in purging alloreactive T cells from donor bone marrow prior to bone marrow transplantation to inhibit graft versus host disease.

    摘要: The present invention relates to, inter alia, methods for inhibiting the interaction of the B-lymphocyte antigen, B7-2, with its natural ligand on the surface of an immune cell are disclosed. The methods comprise contacting the immune cell with an agent which inhibits B7-2 binding with its natural ligand, to thereby inhibit the interaction. Examples of such agents are provided, and include a soluble form of B7-2, an antibody that recognized B7-2. The method may also include contacting the immune cell with an agent that blocks the interaction of B7-1 with its natural ligand. Further, the method may include contacting the immune cell with an immunomodulating agent, for example, an antibody reactive with CD28, an antibody reactive with CTLA4, an antibody reactive with a cytokine, a CTLA4Ig fusion protein, a CD28Ig fusion protein, and an immunosuppressive drug. Both in vivo and in vitro applications of the method are disclosed.
