CTLA-4 & survival in a colorectal cancer model
The hCTLA-4 mouse enables the in vivo efficacy assessment and profiling of immuno-oncology agents targeting the human immune checkpoint CTLA-4 in fully immunocompetent mice.
The humanized CTLA‑4 mouse model (hCTLA-4) is developed by Knockin at the mouse CTLA‑4 locus, and enables the expression of: a) the full-length chimeric CTLA-4 isoform; and b) the soluble isoform.
The design also gives access to CTLA-4 conditional Knockout mice for a tissue-specific assessment of compounds’ specificity and toxicity.
hCTLA-4 and mCTLA-4 expression on αCD3-activated splenocytes on A) Tregs (viable, CD3+CD4+CD25+Foxp3+), B) conventional CD4+ (viable, CD3+CD4+Foxp3-) at day 3, and C) CD8+ (viable, CD3+CD8+) T cells at indicated time points.
Wild-type and hCTLA-4 mice were implanted s.c. with MC38 tumor on day 0 with n=10 mice per group. Survival of mice treated with αhCTLA-4 (IPI antibody), αmCTLA-4 (9H10) or isotype i.p. bi-weekly for 4 weeks.
