It exists predominantly on various immune cells like natural killer (NK) cells T cells basophils and monocytes. This receptor belongs to the signaling lymphocytic activation molecule (SLAM) family. 2B4's primary role is contributive during cell communication. It specifically recognizes CD48 on neighboring cells and modulates immune responses based on target cell recognition. This function empowers NK cells to maintain immune surveillance and cytotoxicity.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\n2B4 plays an integrative role within cellular immune response. When engaged by its ligand CD48 it regulates activation signals in NK cells and T cells. 2B4 is not a standalone entity but functions as a part of a larger cluster of differentiation molecules. This cluster including CD244.1 and CD244.2 facilitates signal transduction leading to immune modulation. The receptor acts as either an activating or inhibitory agent depending on the expression levels of its associated signaling proteins like SAP (SLAM-associated protein).\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nCross-linking of 2B4 forms a critical axis in multiple immune pathways such as the NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity and adaptive immune response pathway. It interacts closely with SAP a protein that modulates downstream signaling events leading to immune cell activation or suppression. Besides SAP 2B4 collaboratively participates with other SLAM family receptors. These interactions optimize the balance between immune activation and tolerance ensuring appropriate immune responses.\u003cbr\u003e\n2B4 has a significant involvement. Aberrant 2B4 signaling can lead to immune dysregulation linked to diseases like hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) and certain autoimmune diseases. In HLH defective interactions between 2B4 and SAP contribute to impaired apoptosis of target cells leading to excessive immune proliferation. This dysfunctionality often features alongside compromised activity of related proteins such as perforin which is essential for target cell lysis. Consequently understanding 2B4's function and interaction helps in exploring targeted therapies for immune-associated disorders.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46850425356457,"sku":"ab314434","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab314434","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
