Title
Direct T-cell Inhibition and Agents Targeting T-cell Migration and Chemotaxis
Abstract
Lymphocyte depletion and blockade of T-cell activation and trafficking serve as therapeutic
strategies for an enlarging number of immune-mediated diseases and malignancies. This
review summarizes the infection risks associated to monoclonal antibodies that bind
to the α chain of the interleukin-2 receptor, the cell surface glycoprotein CD52,
and members of α4- and β2-integrin families acting as cell-adhesion molecules. An
outline of the mechanisms of action, approved indications and off-label uses, expected
impact on the host immune response, and available clinical evidence is provided for
each of these agents.
