Area of Expertise
Dr. Mathew is one of the pioneers who identified, cloned, and characterized several receptors expressed on human NK cells including 2B4 (CD244, SLAMF4), CS1 (CD319, SLAMF7) and LLT1 (CLEC-2D). Research in his laboratory has identified their ligands, elucidated the signaling pathways, and also determined the transcriptional regulation of these genes in health and disease conditions. Dr. Mathew has shown that anti-CS1 antibody activates NK cell cytotoxicity against various cancer cells. The FDA has approved a humanized anti-CS1 mAb, Empliciti, as a breakthrough drug for multiple myeloma treatment. Thus, his research has led to the development of novel NK cell based immunotherapy for cancer. Current focus is identification of markers for cancer stem cells (CSCs) and targeting CSCs to NK cell mediated killing.
