Abstract

A recombinant co-stimulatory molecule capable of inducing multiple effects on varied immune cells when present in its soluble active form is termed as SA-4-1BBL. It has been reported to influence innate, adaptive, and regulatory immune cells. Recent studies confirmed its engagement with receptor, 4-1BB leading to collection of interleukin-2 (IL-2) that in turn overcomes Treg suppression. Further, a vast number of pre- clinical studies reported its therapeutic efficacy in the form of adjuvant subunit in cancer vaccines. Furthermore, it is also observed that it contributes significantly towards communication bridge of CD4 and NK cells. On the other hand, depletion of either NK or CD4 cells negated SA-4-1BBL's antitumor protection. The present review article is focused on the current updates of this molecule pertaining to the filed of cancer therapeutics or cancer preventives.
