Background
Human B7 homolog 3 (B7-H3) is a member of the B7 family of immune proteins that provide signals for regulating immune responses (1‑3). Other family members include B7-1, B7-2, B7-H2, PD-L1 (B7-H1), and PD-L2. B7 proteins are immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily members with extracellular Ig-V-like and Ig-C-like domains and short cytoplasmic domains. Among the family members, they share about 20-40% amino acid (aa) sequence identity. The cloned human B7-H3 cDNA encodes a 316 aa type I membrane precursor protein with a putative 28 aa signal peptide, a 217 aa extracellular region containing one V-like and one C-like Ig domain, a transmembrane region, and a 45 aa cytoplasmic domain. An isoform of human B7-H3 containing a four-Ig-like domain extracellular region has also been identified. Human B7-H3 is not expressed on resting B cells, T cells, monocytes or dendritic cells, but is induced on dendritic cells and monocytes by inflammatory cytokines. B7-H3 expression is also detected on various normal tissues and in some tumor cell lines. Human B7-H3 does not bind any known members of the CD28 family of immunoreceptors. However, B7-H3 has been shown to bind an unidentified counter-receptor on activated T cells to costimulate the proliferation of CD4+ or CD8+ T cells. B7-H3 has also been found to enhance the induction of primary cytotoxic T lymphocytes and stimulate IFN-gamma production (1-3).
