TIGIT (T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains), an inhibitory receptor expressed on activated T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, and regulatory T cells (Tregs). TIGIT binds with high affinity to its ligands CD155 (PVR) and CD112 (PVRL2, nectin-2), which are often overexpressed on tumor cells and antigen-presenting cells within the tumor microenvironment. The TIGIT-CD155/CD112 interaction transmits an inhibitory signal that suppresses T cell and NK cell activation, proliferation, and effector function, contributing to immune evasion.
