Enhanced effect of the immunosuppressive soluble HLA-G2 homodimer by site-specific PEGylation by Chisato Yamada, Kimiko Kuroki, Naoyoshi Maeda, Hiroshi Watanabe, Ami Takahashi, Katsumi Maenaka

“…One of the other isoforms, HLA-G2, lacks a α2 domain or β2m to form a nondisulfide-linked homodimer, and its ectodomain specifically binds to LILRB2 expressed in human monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells. The administration of the ectodomain of HLA-G2, designated the soluble HLA-G2 homodimer, showed significant immunosuppressive effects in mouse models of rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus, presumably by binding to a mouse ortholog of LILRB2, paired immunoglobulin-like receptor B. …”
