T cell immunoglobulin and immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif domain as a promising immune checkpoint target for the treatment of SLE.
Lupus 2024 March
Immune checkpoints (ICs) play a pivotal role in orchestrating immune regulation, crucial for the maintenance of immune tolerance and prevention of autoimmune diseases. One noteworthy example among these immune regulators is T cell immunoglobulin (Ig) and immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) domain (TIGIT). The TIGIT pathway's inhibition or the absence of TIGIT has been linked to the hyperactivation and excessive proliferation of T cells, rendering individuals more susceptible to autoimmune diseases and exacerbating inflammatory responses. Conversely, the activation of TIGIT has exhibited promising outcomes in ameliorating autoimmune disorders, as observed in murine models of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Consequently, a judicious exploration of the co-inhibitory axis appears warranted for the effective management of pathogenic immune responses in SLE. In light of compelling evidence, this review undertakes a comprehensive examination of TIGIT's characteristics within the context of autoimmunity, offering insights into its potential as a therapeutic target for SLE.
