Publication Open Access Understanding LAG-3 Signaling(MDPI, 2021) Chocarro de Erauso, Luisa; Blanco, Ester; Zuazo Ibarra, Miren; Arasanz Esteban, Hugo; Bocanegra Gondán, Ana Isabel; Fernández Rubio, Leticia; Morente Sancho, Pilar; Fernández Hinojal, Gonzalo; Echaide Górriz, Míriam; Garnica, Maider; Ramos, Pablo; Vera García, Ruth; Kochan, Grazyna; Escors Murugarren, David; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientziak; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako GobernuaLymphocyte activation gene 3 (LAG-3) is a cell surface inhibitory receptor with multiple biological activities over T cell activation and effector functions. LAG-3 plays a regulatory role in immunity and emerged some time ago as an inhibitory immune checkpoint molecule comparable to PD-1 and CTLA-4 and a potential target for enhancing anti-cancer immune responses. LAG-3 is the third inhibitory receptor to be exploited in human anti-cancer immunotherapies, and it is considered a potential next-generation cancer immunotherapy target in human therapy, right next to PD-1 and CTLA-4. Unlike PD-1 and CTLA-4, the exact mechanisms of action of LAG-3 and its relationship with other immune checkpoint molecules remain poorly understood. This is partly caused by the presence of non-conventional signaling motifs in its intracellular domain that are different from other conventional immunoregulatory signaling motifs but with similar inhibitory activities. Here we summarize the current understanding of LAG-3 signaling and its role in LAG-3 functions, from its mechanisms of action to clinical applications.Publication Open Access Clinical landscape of LAG-3-targeted therapy(Elsevier, 2022) Chocarro de Erauso, Luisa; Blanco, Ester; Arasanz Esteban, Hugo; Fernández Rubio, Leticia; Bocanegra Gondán, Ana Isabel; Echaide Górriz, Míriam; Garnica, Maider; Ramos, Pablo; Fernández Hinojal, Gonzalo; Vera García, Ruth; Kochan, Grazyna; Escors Murugarren, David; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientziak; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako GobernuaLymphocyte-activated gene 3 (LAG-3) is a cell surface inhibitory receptor and a key regulator of immune homeostasis with multiple biological activities related to T-cell functions. LAG-3 is considered a next-generation immune checkpoint of clinical importance, right next to programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and cytotoxic T-cell lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4). Indeed, it is the third inhibitory receptor to be exploited in human anticancer immunotherapies. Several LAG-3-antagonistic immunotherapies are being evaluated at various stages of preclinical and clinical development. In addition, combination therapies blocking LAG-3 together with other immune checkpoints are also being evaluated at preclinical and clinical levels. Indeed, the co-blockade of LAG-3 with PD-1 is demonstrating encouraging results. A new generation of bispecific PD-1/LAG-3-blocking agents have also shown strong capacities to specifically target PD-1+ LAG-3+ highly dysfunctional T cells and enhance their proliferation and effector activities. Here we identify and classify preclinical and clinical trials conducted involving LAG-3 as a target through an extensive bibliographic research. The current understanding of LAG-3 clinical applications is summarized, and most of the publically available data up to date regarding LAG-3-targeted therapy preclinical and clinical research and development are reviewed and discussed.
