TIGIT stable cell line of monkeys The T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains (TIGIT), a member of the PVR (poliovirus receptor) family of immunoglobulin proteins, is expressed by the engineered cell line Jurkat. The TIGIT gene, which has an open reading frame length of roughly 1,800 bp, is found on chromosome X. Extracellular Ig domains and intracellular ITIM domains make up the TIGIT protein.
Several types of T cells, including follicular B helper T cells (TFH), express TIGIT. It has a strong affinity for PVR, which makes it easier for TFH and dendritic cells to connect and control T cell-dependent B cell responses. Studies have demonstrated the critical function TIGIT plays in regulating immunological responses, which has implications for a number of illnesses, including cancer. Jurkat cells are a human T lymphocyte cell line derived from a patient with acute T cell leukemia. They have traits common to T cells, such as T cell receptor expression, and are frequently employed in immunological studies. Standard cell culture methods can be used to maintain Jurkat cells in culture, which makes them useful for researching T cell biology and immunotherapy.
MG1131 is the designation of the IgG4-type monoclonal antibody that the researchers created against human TIGIT by employing a phage display library of single-chain variable fragments (scFvs). Compared to PVR, this antibody's ligand, interacts with TIGIT more strongly. It was discovered through crystal structural study that MG1131 successfully prevents PVR and TIGIT from interacting, hence preventing TIGIT's immunosuppressive signaling. Furthermore, MG1131 attaches to cells that express TIGIT, preventing PVR binding. MG1131 restored peripheral blood mononuclear cells' interferon-γ release, suppressed Treg cells' immunosuppressive activity, and improved NK cell-mediated tumor killing in experimental conditions. Moreover, it inhibited the growth of tumors in mice and encouraged T cell infiltration into tumor locations.
Figure 1. The researchers generated a Jurkat cell line that stably expressed TIGIT by cloning the full-length hTIGIT cDNA into the pEF1α-AcGFP-N1 vector and introducing it into Jurkat E6.1 cells. These hTIGIT-Jurkat cell lines were used to screen and identify high-affinity antibodies that can effectively block the binding of PVR to hTIGIT. (Jeong BS, et al., 2022)
1. TIGIT Expression in Monkey Cells: Jurkat cells modified to express TIGIT, a critical immunological receptor that promotes cell-to-cell contacts, especially in T cells like TFH, are used to create a stable monkey TIGIT cell line.
2. Immunoregulation and Cell Signaling: TIGIT affects diseases such as cancer by regulating immunological responses and cell signaling pathways through the use of extracellular Ig and intracellular ITIM domains.
3. Functional Studies in Immunotherapy: Derived from human T lymphocytes, Jurkat cells provide a model system for investigating T cell biology and immunotherapy, providing information on immunoregulatory processes connected to TIGIT.
4. Relevance to Disease Research: For disorders requiring immunological dysregulation, knowing how TIGIT connects TFH and dendritic cells to regulate T cell-dependent B cell responses is essential, providing possible therapeutic targets.
5. Tools for Studying Immune Responses: This stable cell line offers a means of examining TIGIT-mediated immune responses, which helps with the development of immunotherapy plans and medicinal therapies for a range of ailments.
