Immune responses require costimulatory interactions between molecules on antigen-presenting cells and T cells: CD40 binding to CD40 ligand and B7 binding to CD28. Graves' hyperthyroidism is induced in BALB/c mice by immunization with thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) A-subunit adenovirus (Ad-A-subunit). We attempted to modulate Ad-A-subunit-induced Graves' disease using adenoviruses expressing costimulation "decoys": CD40-IgG-Fc (CD40-Ig) to block CD40:CD40-ligand interactions and CTLA4-Fc (CTLA4-Ig) to prevent B7:CD28 binding.
