CD276 overexpression

B7-H3 nanoCAR-T cells showed promise for glioblastoma therapy following in vitro characterization, but limiting in vivo toxicity was observed. Off-tumor recognition of healthy mouse tissue by the cross-reactive B7-H3 nanoCAR-T cells was identified as a potential cause for this toxicity, warranting caution when using highly sensitive nanoCAR-T cells, recognizing the low-level expression of B7-H3 on healthy tissue.

Overexpression of B7H3, B7H4, PD-1, PD-L1, PD-L2, CD70, and Galectin-3 on tumors is significantly associated with unfavorable clinicopathological characteristics and poor prognostic factors. Hence, these immune checkpoints can serve as predictive biomarkers for prognosis and the clinicopathological features of colorectal cancer because this is essential to identify patients suitable for anticancer therapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors.

Moreover, CARs with the binders exhibited higher surface expression and greater resistance to degradation, as indicated by bulk and single-cell transcriptional profiling of the cells. The de novo design of binding domains for specific tumour antigens may potentiate the antitumour efficacy of CAR T cell therapies for other solid cancers.

Our findings characterize CD276 as promising target and preclinically document the therapeutic potential of CC-3 for BC treatment, providing a strong rationale for evaluation of CC-3 in BC patients in a clinical trial for which the recruitment has recently started.

Elevated B7H3 expression is associated with reduced oCR rates in LARC, highlighting its potential role as a prognostic biomarker. Further studies with larger cohorts are warranted to validate these findings and explore B7H3-targeted therapies as a treatment strategy for LARC.

Collectively, these results indicated that [89Zr]Zr-DFO-hu4G4 was successfully fabricated and applied in B7-H3-targeted tumor PET/CT imaging, which showed excellent imaging quality and tumor detection efficacy in tumor-bearing mice. It is a promising imaging agent for identifying tumors that overexpress B7-H3 for future clinical applications.

CD276 is markedly upregulated in bladder cancer and associated with severe pathological features, advanced disease, potential for metastasis, and diminished survival rates. It may promote bladder cancer development and progression by influencing extracellular matrix-related-related pathways, making it a viable diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for bladder cancer.

This study successfully elucidates the functional role of CD276 in ESCC. Our comprehensive analysis uncovers the significant role of CD276 in modulating immune surveillance mechanisms in ESCC, thereby suggesting that targeting CD276 might serve as a potential therapeutic approach for ESCC treatment.

The improved functional affinity by dimerization does not compensate the disadvantage of increased molecular size for imaging purposes.

Moreover, we delve into the protumor effects of B7-H3 in AML, examine the intricate mechanisms that underlie its function, and discuss the emerging application of B7-H3-targeted therapy in AML treatment. By juxtaposing B7-H3 with other molecules within the B7 family, this review emphasizes the distinctive advantages of B7-H3, not only as a valuable prognostic biomarker but also as a highly promising immunotherapeutic target in AML.

With clinical translational value, the predictive value of B7-H3 for conventional immunotherapy was detected using the Kaplan-Meier plotter tool, and the results showed that melanoma patients with high B7-H3 expression were insensitive to anti-PD-1 and anti-CTLA-4 immunotherapy. In conclusion, we first investigate the expression of B7-H3 in melanoma and its correlations with the TME features, and indicate B7-H3 as a promising therapeutic target in melanoma patients that are insensitive to conventional immunotherapy.

B7-H3 directly interacts with ENO1 in lung cancer cells. B7-H3 can promote proliferation and migration of lung cancer cells by modulating PI3K/AKT pathway via ENO1 activity.
