T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains (TIGIT)

Target
TIGIT
Molecular classification
Type I transmembrane protein, Immunoglobulin superfamily protein, Receptor, Immune checkpoint receptor
01

Overview

TIGIT (T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains) is an immune checkpoint receptor expressed on various immune cells, including T cells and NK cells. It binds to CD155 (PVR) and other ligands, delivering inhibitory signals that dampen immune responses. TIGIT plays a crucial role in regulating immune tolerance and is implicated in cancer immune evasion, making it a promising target for cancer immunotherapy.
