Abstract
A growing body of clinical and experimental evidence indicates that immune checkpoint blockade enhances patient susceptibility to hypersensitivity reactions to co-administered medications. In this study, we utilized an in vitro T-cell priming assay to demonstrate one of the mechanistic hypotheses on how this occurs; through lowering of the threshold in patients to elicit aberrant T-cell responses. We outline the dependency of de novo T-cell priming responses to drug-associated antigens on dose at initial exposure. Findings support the aforementioned hypothesis and offer an experimental representation of fundamental parameters at play in hypersensitivity reactions to low molecular weight compounds.
期刊介绍:
The mission of Toxicological Sciences, the official journal of the Society of Toxicology, is to publish a broad spectrum of impactful research in the field of toxicology.
The primary focus of Toxicological Sciences is on original research articles. The journal also provides expert insight via contemporary and systematic reviews, as well as forum articles and editorial content that addresses important topics in the field.
The scope of Toxicological Sciences is focused on a broad spectrum of impactful toxicological research that will advance the multidisciplinary field of toxicology ranging from basic research to model development and application, and decision making. Submissions will include diverse technologies and approaches including, but not limited to: bioinformatics and computational biology, biochemistry, exposure science, histopathology, mass spectrometry, molecular biology, population-based sciences, tissue and cell-based systems, and whole-animal studies. Integrative approaches that combine realistic exposure scenarios with impactful analyses that move the field forward are encouraged.
