CS1 (also known as CD319, CRACC and SLAMF7) was identified as an NK cell receptor regulating immune functions. It is also expressed on B cells, T cells, Dendritic cells, NK-T cells, and monocytes. CS1 is overexpressed in multiple myeloma and makes it a target for immunotherapy. A humanized anti-CS1 antibody, Elotuzumab or Empliciti has shown promising results in clinical studies. This review focuses on the biology of CS1 in NK and other hematopoietic cells and multiple myeloma. Anti-CS1 mAb can activate natural cytotoxicity of NK cells as well as enhance ADCC (antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity) and thus makes an effective target for immunotherapy of MM.
CS1(也称为CD319、CRACC和SLAMF7)被鉴定为一种调节免疫功能的自然杀伤(NK)细胞受体。它也在B细胞、T细胞、树突状细胞、NK-T细胞和单核细胞上表达。CS1在多发性骨髓瘤中过度表达,使其成为免疫治疗的靶点。一种人源化抗CS1抗体埃罗妥珠单抗(Elotuzumab)或Empliciti在临床研究中已显示出有前景的结果。本综述聚焦于CS1在NK细胞和其他造血细胞以及多发性骨髓瘤中的生物学特性。抗CS1单克隆抗体可激活NK细胞的自然细胞毒性以及增强抗体依赖性细胞介导的细胞毒性(ADCC),因此成为多发性骨髓瘤免疫治疗的有效靶点。
