It possesses an approximate mass of 35 kDa. TIM-3 is expressed on various immune cells including T cells NK cells and dendritic cells especially after activation. The expression level often changes in response to inflammatory conditions suggesting its role in modulating immune responses.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nTIM-3 functions as a checkpoint inhibitor impacting immune cell activity. It is not part of a larger physical complex but it modulates immune responses by interacting with its ligands such as Galectin-9 phosphatidylserine and CEACAM1. TIM-3 involvement in downregulating Th1 cell responses shows its necessary role in maintaining immune homeostasis. The protein also acts in regulating tolerance mechanisms and preventing autoimmunity.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nTIM-3 participation is seen in the immune checkpoint and T cell exhaustion pathways. TIM-3 signaling results in T cell inhibition affecting the PD-1 pathway as well. It shares a relationship with proteins like LAG-3 and PD-1 which are key to immune inhibitory signaling. These interactions depict TIM-3's role in immune tolerance during chronic infections and malignancies.\u003cbr\u003e\nTIM-3 association with cancer and chronic infections provides insight into therapeutic implications. In cancer TIM-3 contributes to immune evasion often co-expressed with PD-1 leading to T cell exhaustion. In autoimmune diseases TIM-3 modulation may affect disease progression by influencing immune tolerance. Understanding TIM-3's role in these contexts aids in developing targeted therapies such as anti-TIM-3 antibodies to enhance immune responses in cancer while promoting tolerance in autoimmunity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46844194488489,"sku":"ab242080","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab242080","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
