pubmed:abstractText |
Cytolytic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) plays a critical role in the down-regulation of antigen-activated immune responses. The aberrant CTLA-4 expression is characterized by low surface and intracellular levels of CTLA-4 protein, impaired up-regulation of CTLA-4 in T cells in response to ConA stimulation and high levels of soluble CTLA-4 (sCTLA-4) in serum. The serum levels of sCTLA-4 are positively correlated with the serum concentration of antibodies against the acetylcholine receptor. The (AT)(n) polymorphism in the 3'-untranslated region contributes to decreased mRNA stability and, hence, to reduced expression of CTLA-4.
