    In diverse models, laminins alpha-4 (LAMA4) and alpha-5 (LAMA5) were differentially regulated. Immunity was associated with decreased LAMA4:LAMA5 ratio, while tolerance was associated with an increased ratio. LAMA4inhibited CD4+ T-cell proliferation and Th1, Th2, and Th17 polarization but favored Treg induction. LAMA4 and LAMA5 are coinhibitory and costimulatory ligands for human and mouse CD4 T cells, respectively.
