Target Information
CD86 is a costimulatory molecule expressed on antigen-presenting cells, such as dendritic cells and macrophages. It plays a crucial role in T cell activation and survival by interacting with its receptors, CD28 and CTLA-4. CD86 is involved in various immune responses and is linked to diseases like autoimmune disorders and infections. CD68 is a key biomarker in autoimmune diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)

CD86 also known as B7-2 is a protein involved in the regulation of the immune response. It has an approximate mass of 70 kDa and is expressed on antigen-presenting cells like dendritic cells monocytes and macrophages. Notably CD86 is present on macrophages including those in tissues such as skin and lymphoid organs. Expressed on these cells CD86 serves as a vital mediator in the co-stimulatory signals necessary for T cell activation and survival.
Biological function summary
CD86 plays a significant role in the immune system by providing secondary signals for T cell activation and differentiation. It is a part of the B7 protein family and forms a complex with CD28 and CTLA-4 on T cells. When CD86 binds to CD28 it sends positive co-stimulatory signals which promote T cell proliferation and cytokine production. On the other hand interaction with CTLA-4 transmits an inhibitory signal which reduces immune response. This dual interaction helps to balance immune activation and tolerance.
Pathways
CD86 takes part in important immune-related signaling pathways particularly the T cell receptor signaling pathway and the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. Both pathways are fundamental for initiating immune responses. CD86's interaction with CD28 activates downstream signaling cascades including PI3K-Akt which is important for cell survival and growth. Additionally CD86 collaborates with other proteins such as CD80 another co-stimulatory molecule to amplify T cell activation within these pathways.
CD86 is associated with autoimmune diseases and transplant rejection. In autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis the overexpression or dysregulation of CD86 can lead to excessive T cell activation causing immune system attacks on the body's own tissues. Similarly in transplant rejection CD86 may contribute by enhancing immune response against transplanted organs. The engagement between CD86 and CD28 is a critical factor in these conditions and therapies targeting this interaction are under exploration to mitigate the immune response.
