TIM-3 is an inhibitory molecule that is induced following T cell activation (1-3 ). TIM-3 is expressed by exhausted T cells in the settings of chronic infection and cancer (4,5), and tumor-infiltrating T cells that coexpress PD-1 and TIM-3 exhibit the most severe exhausted phenotype (5). Tumor-infiltrating dendritic cells (DCs) also express TIM-3. TIM-3 expression on DCs was found to suppress innate immunity by reducing the immunogenicity of nucleic acids released by dying tumor cells (6). Research studies show that heterodimerization of TIM-3 with CEACAM-1 is critical for the inhibitory function of TIM-3, and co-blockade of TIM-3 and CEACAM-1 enhanced anti-tumor responses in a mouse model of colorectal cancer (7). In addition, blockade of TIM-3 in mouse models of autoimmunity enhanced the severity of disease (1). Finally, binding of Galectin-9 to TIM-3 expressed by Th1 cells induces T cell death (8).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nCD366; HAVcr-2; Havcr2; HAVR2; hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 2; Hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 2 homolog; MGC124149; MGC124150; OTTMUSP00000005654; T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain containing 3; T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-containing protein 3; T-cell immunoglobulin mucin receptor 3; T-cell membrane protein 3; Tim; TIM-; TIM-3; Tim3; Timd; TIMD-3; Timd3\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: M\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800271900841,"sku":"75743T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-75743t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
