Abstract
The B7 family member B7-H3 (CD276) plays a key role during an immune response but its function remains controversial. In this study, we found that murine B7-H3 up-regulated the proliferation and cytokine production of T cells. Our study suggested that there was no interaction of murine B7-H3 with a triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM)-like transcript 2 (TLT-2). Further studies demonstrated that mouse B7-H3 specifically bound to T cells and its receptor was not murine TLT-2. Moreover, murine B7-H3 was a positive co-stimulatory molecule in the regulation of T cell-mediated immune responses.Entities:
