Abstract: CD137 (TNFRSF9, 4-1BB) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor family and a potent costimulatory molecule. High levels of CD137 are expressed on T cells upon activation. CD137 signaling in T cells, either by cognate interaction with antigen-presenting cells (APC) or by agonistic anti-CD137 antibodies, strongly enhances proliferation, interferon-γ secretion, and cytolytic activity of T cells. Thus, CD137 signaling is a main driver of cellular, type 1 helper T cells (Th1) and type 1 cytolytic T cells (Tc1) polarised immune responses. CD137 costimulation enables the immune system to eliminate tumors as shown in a wide plethora of murine tumor models. Agonistic antibodies against human CD137 currently prove to be effective in clinical cancer therapy trials (Dharmadhikari et al., 2016).
