BTLA or B and T-lymphocyte attenuator is a member of the co-inhibitory receptors of the CD28 superfamily. BTLA is a lymphocyte inhibitory receptor which inhibits lymphocytes during immunes responses. BTLA is constitutively expressed on most CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and its expression progressively decreases upon T cell activation. It remains expressed on Th1 cells, but not Th2 cells. BTLA is a unique co-receptor that interacts with the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member herpesvirus entry mediator (HVEM). This interation is an important pathway regulating lymphocyte activation and/or homeostasis in the immune response.
