Background: ICOS

Inducible co-stimulator (ICOS), also called AILIM (activation-inducible lymphocyte immunomediatory molecule) and CRP-1 (CD28-related protein-1), is a member of the CD28 family of immune costimulatory receptors (1). Other family members are CD28, CTLA-4 and PD-1 (2, 4). Human ICOS is a homodimeric type I transmembrane protein consisting of 199 amino acids (aa) with a putative 20 aa signal sequence, a 121 aa extracellular domain, a 23 aa transmembrane region, and a 35 aa cytoplasmic domain. ICOS shares approximately 39% amino acid similarity with CD28 and CTLA-4. Human and mouse ICOS share approximately 72% amino acid identity. ICOS is expressed on most CD45RO+ cells (3). ICOS expression is up-regulated within approximately 24-48 hours of activation on Th primed cells (2, 4, 6). ICOS has been shown to have a role in the expansion of Th17 cells by regulating IL-21 production (8). B7-H2, a member of the B7 family of co-stimulatory ligands, has been identified as the ICOS ligand (4, 6). The B7-H2/ICOS interaction appears to play roles in T cell dependent B cell activation and Th differentiation (5, 7).
