Current understanding of the immunoregulatory functions of PD-1 and its ligands and their therapeutic potential are discussed and an inhibitory bidirectional interaction between PD-L1 and B7-1 is discovered, revealing new ways the B7:CD28 family regulates T cell activation and tolerance.
Programmed death-1 ligand 1 interacts specifically with the B7-1 costimulatory molecule to inhibit T cell responses.

The data suggest that the loss of epicardial FSTL1 is a maladaptive response to injury, and that its restoration would be an effective way to reverse myocardial death and remodelling following myocardIAL infarction in humans.

It is observed that only microvesicles (MVs) can functionally transfer loaded reporter molecules to recipient cells, largely by delivering plasmid DNA, and that exosomes and MVs are structurally and functionally distinct.
