Core Tip Mesenchymal stromal cells release a defined set of soluble immune checkpoint proteins, notably soluble programmed death ligand 1 and 2, galectin-9, galectin-1 and the secreted human leukocyte antigen-G5 isoform. Treated separately until now, they form a single inducible module we term the soluble checkpointome. Because its abundance rises with inflammatory licensing and tracks with suppressive capacity, it offers a licensed, cell-free, multi-analyte panel well suited to the potency assays regulators require, and amenable to composite scoring supported by machine learning.
