Immunotherapy strategies aimed at inducing, strengthening or engineering T cell responses have emerged as promising approaches for the treatment of diseases such as cancer and autoimmunity. T cell activation is initiated by engagement of the TCR/CD3 complex and the co-stimulatory receptor CD28, with TCR/CD3 engagement activating the NFAT pathway and TCR/CD3 + CD28 co-engagement activating NFAT, AP-1 and NF-B pathways and inducing IL-2 production. The T Cell Activation Bioassays are bioluminescent cell-based assays that overcome the limitations of existing assays and can be used for the discovery and development of novel biologics such as bispecific antibodies and CAR-T cell therapies.
