Definition / general
- Also called B7-2
- T cells need two signals for activation - the first signal is antigen peptide presented on MHC class II through the T cell receptor
- The second (costimulatory) signal is delivered by CD80 or CD86, expressed on surface of antigen presenting cells, which interact with either CD28 or CD152 (CTLA-4)
- CD80 and CD86 appear to have opposing functions on regulatory T cells (J Immunol 2004;172:2778)
- Polymorphisms are associated with liver transplant acceptance (Transpl Immunol 2005;15:69) and systemic sclerosis (Int J Immunogenet 2006;33:155)
- Increased expression may cause excessive antigen presentation in fulminant hepatic failure as an early step in its pathogenesis before the onset of tissue damage (Am J Pathol 1999;154:1711)
- High circulating soluble levels are poor prognostic factor in myeloma (Br J Haematol 2006;133:165); are associated with severe asthma (Thorax 2004;59:870)
- Receptor for some adenovirus species (Virus Res 2006;122:144)
- Associated with H. pylori dependent early stage high grade MALT lymphoma of stomach (World J Gastroenterol 2005;11:4357)
