Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information granzyme B expression in Treg cells is activated by syngeneic tumor cell line Mus musculus

Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine Treg cells derived from the tumor environment can induce NK and CD8(+) T cell death in a granzyme B- and perforin-dependent fashion. Granzyme B and perforin are relevant for Treg cell-mediated suppression of tumor clearance in vivo Mus musculus

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information granzyme A/B-deficient mice exhibit significantly reduced survival compared to wild-type mice. Granzyme B-deficient mice clear both allogeneic and syngeneic tumor cell lines more efficiently than do wild-type mice. NK and CD8+ T cell death in tumor ascites of granzyme B-deficient mice is reduced after Treg cell depletion Mus musculus
