Cellular inhibitor of apoptosis-1 (cIAP1) is a signaling regulator with oncogenic properties. It is involved in the regulation of signaling pathways controlling inflammation, cell survival, proliferation, differentiation and motility. It is recruited into membrane-receptor-associated signaling complexes thanks to the molecular adaptor TRAF2.

Leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptors (LILRs) are a family of inhibitory or stimulatory receptors expressed by immune cell types belonging to both myeloid and lymphoid lineage. Several members of the LILR family recognize major histocompatibility complex class I and thus play important roles in a range of clinical situations including pregnancy. Moreover, paired immunoglobulin-like receptors (PIRs), the murine orthologs of LILRs, are implicated in experimental transplant allorecognition by monocytes and contribute to the induction of donor-specific monocyte-memory.

Article Synopsis
  • Recently developed human monocyte-derived suppressor cells (HuMoSC), specifically CD33+ subpopulation, show potential in reducing graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) severity in mice.
  • Researchers found that the supernatant from CD14+HuMoSC significantly inhibits T cell proliferation and cytotoxicity, effectively reducing GvHD in NSG mice.
  • The CD14+HuMoSC supernatant can be produced with good manufacturing practices and may serve as a complementary treatment alongside existing immunosuppressive drugs for GvHD prevention.
