CD28 is the primary co-stimulatory receptor for inducing high-level IL-2 production and
survival of naïve CD4 (+) T cells. While no other cell surface receptor can be considered fully
redundant with CD28, recent developments suggest that additional co-stimulatory pathways
have preferential effects at different stages of T cell activation, on different subsets of T cells
or contribute to the development of different effector functions.
