The immunoglobulin superfamily member CD147 plays an important role in fetal, neuronal, lymphocyte and extracellular matrix development. Here we review the current understanding of CD147 expression and protein interactions with regard to CD147 function and its role in pathologic conditions including heart disease, Alzheimer's disease, stroke and cancer. A model linking hypoxic conditions found within the tumor microenvironment to upregulation of CD147 expression and tumor progression is introduced.

First-in-human, multicenter, open-label, phase I study of ATOR-1017 (evunzekibart), a 4-1BB antibody, in patients with advanced solid malignancies.

Background: ATOR-1017 (evunzekibart) is a human agonistic immunoglobulin G4 antibody targeting the costimulatory receptor 4-1BB (CD137). ATOR-1017 activates T cells and natural killer cells in the tumor environment, leading to immune-mediated tumor cell death.
Methods: In this first-in-human, multicenter, phase I study, ATOR-1017 was administered intravenously every 21 days as a monotherapy to patients with advanced, unresectable solid tumors having received multiple standard-of-care treatments.

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized cancer therapy, but many patients fail to respond or develop resistance, often due to reduced T cell activity. Costimulation via 4-1BB has emerged as a promising approach to enhance the effector function of antigen-primed T cells. Bispecific T cell-engaging (TCE) antibodies are an effective way to provide tumor-specific T cell receptor-mediated signaling to tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes.

Antibody and cell-based therapeutics targeting cell surface receptors have emerged as a major class of immune therapeutics for treating cancer. However, the number of cell surface targets for cancer immunotherapy remains limited. Glypican-3 (GPC3) is a cell surface proteoglycan and an oncofetal antigen.

Background: Agonistic monoclonal antibodies targeting 4-1BB/CD137 have shown preclinical promise, but their clinical development has been limited by severe liver toxicity or limited efficacy. Therefore, a safe and efficient immunostimulatory molecule is urgently needed for cancer immunotherapy.
Methods: A novel anti-MSLN×4-1BB bispecific antibody (bsAb) was generated via antibody engineering, and its affinity and activity were detected via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), flow cytometry, and T-cell activation and luciferase reporter assays.
Roles of the Receptor for Advanced Glycation End Products and Its Ligands in the Pathogenesis of Alzheimer's Disease.

The Receptor for Advanced Glycation End Products (RAGE), part of the immunoglobulin superfamily, plays a significant role in various essential functions under both normal and pathological conditions, especially in the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). RAGE engages with several damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), including advanced glycation end products (AGEs), beta-amyloid peptide (Aβ), high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), and S100 calcium-binding proteins. This interaction impairs the brain's ability to clear Aβ, resulting in increased Aβ accumulation, neuronal injury, and mitochondrial dysfunction.
