  • Publication number: 20070116668
    Abstract: This invention relates to lymphotoxin-?, a lymphocyte membrane type protein. This protein is found on the surface of a number of cells, including phorbol ester (PMA) stimulated T cell hybridoma II-23.D7 cells. This invention also relates to complexes formed between lymphotoxin-? and other peptides such as lymphotoxin-? and to complexes comprising multiple subunits of lymphotoxin-?. These proteins and complexes are useful in holding LT-? formed within the cell on the cell surface where the LT-?/LT-? complex may act as an inflammation regulating agent, a tumor growth inhibiting agent, a T cell inhibiting agent, a T cell activating agent, an autoimmune disease regulating agent, or an HIV inhibiting agent. Furthermore, the antitumor activity of the LT-?/LT-? complex may be delivered to tumor cells by tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) transfected with the gene for LT-?.

  • Publication number: 20050281811
    Abstract: This invention relates to compositions and methods useful for activating LT-? receptor signaling, which in turn elicits potent anti-proliferative effects on tumor cells. More particularly, this invention relates to lymphotoxin heteromeric complexes formed between lymphotoxin-? and multiple subunits of lymphotoxin-?, which induce cytotoxic effects on tumor cells in the presence of lymphotoxin-? receptor activating agents. Also within the scope of this invention are antibodies directed against the lymphotoxin-? receptor which act as lymphotoxin-? receptor activating agents alone or in combination with other lymphotoxin-? receptor activating agents either in the presence or absence of lymphotoxin-?/? complexes. A screening method for selecting such antibodies is provided. This invention also relates to compositions and methods using cross-linked anti-lymphotoxin-? receptor antibodies either alone or in the presence of other lymphotoxin-? receptor activating agents to potentiate tumor cell cytotoxicity.
