BTLA expression is induced during activation of T cells, and BTLA remains expressed on Th1 cells but not Th2 cells.
Like PD1 and CTLA4 , BTLA interacts with a B7 homolog, B7H4.
However, unlike PD-1 and CTLA-4, BTLA displays T-Cell inhibition via interaction with tumor necrosis family (TNF) receptors, not just the B7 family of cell surface receptors.
BTLA is a ligand for tumor necrosis factor (ligand) superfamily, member 14 (TNFSF14), also known as herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM).
Northern blot analysis revealed expression in lymph node and spleen, as well as in polarized Th1 but not Th2 cells.
Flow cytometric analysis demonstrated surface expression of a transmembrane protein.
