The Opposite Functions of CD30 Ligand Isoforms.

ABSTRACT: TNFSF8/CD30 ligand is a TNF superfamily member expressed on several major immune cell types, including activated monocytes, B, and T cells. The signaling of CD30 ligand through its cognate CD30 receptor has been shown to have effects on cell differentiation, cell death/survival, and cytokine production. The signaling pair has been implicated in hematopoietic malignancies and inflammatory disease, and a chemotherapy-CD30 antibody combination for the treatment of Hodgkin and other lymphomas has been developed. There are two recorded isoforms of CD30 ligand. All hitherto studies of CD30 ligand are of the first, canonical isoform, while the second isoform has never been described. This study aims to elucidate the properties and signaling functions of the second CD30 ligand isoform. We have fou
