The platelet receptor CLEC-2 blocks neutrophil mediated hepatic recovery in acetaminophen induced acute liver failure

Nature Communications, 2020
The molecular mechanisms that drive irreversible acute liver failure remain poorly characterized. Here, the authors show that the recently discovered platelet receptor CLEC-2 (C-type lectin-like receptor) perpetuates and worsens liver damage during acute

Differential roles for the adapters Gads and LAT in platelet activation by GPVI and CLEC-2 [PDF]

, 2008
Background: The adapter proteins SLP-76 and LAT have been shown to play critical roles in the activation of PLCc2 in platelets downstream of GPVI/FcRc and the C-type lectin receptor CLEC-2.

DCIR suppresses osteoclastic proliferation and resorption by downregulating M-CSF and RANKL signaling

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
Dendritic cell immunoreceptor (DCIR) is an inhibitory C-type lectin receptor that acts as a negative regulator in the immune system and bone metabolism.

Characterization and functional analysis of mouse Ficolin B [PDF]

, 2012
The innate immune system contributes day by day to the elimination of invading pathogens. The lectin pathway of the complement system is initiated when mannose-binding-lectin (MBL) or ficolins interact with MASP-2.

The multiple roles of C-type lectin receptors in cancer

Frontiers in Oncology, 2023
C-type lectin receptors are a family of immune response receptors that can bind with a broad repertoire of ligands. It can function as innative immune receptors to surveillance bacteria, fungi, and virus invasions. The expressions of C-type lectin receptors (CLRs) are found in different types of tumors. But the role of C-type lectin receptors in cancer

BDCA2/Fc epsilon RI gamma complex signals through a novel BCR-like pathway in human plasmacytoid dendritic cells. [PDF]

PLoS Biology, 2007
Dendritic cells are equipped with lectin receptors to sense the extracellular environment and modulate cellular responses. Human plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) uniquely express blood dendritic cell antigen 2 (BDCA2) protein, a C-type lectin lacking ...

Structurally Robust and Functionally Highly Versatile—C-Type Lectin (-Related) Proteins in Snake Venoms

Toxins, 2019
Snake venoms contain an astounding variety of different proteins. Among them are numerous C-type lectin family members, which are grouped into classical Ca2+- and sugar-binding lectins and the non-sugar-binding snake venom C-type lectin-related proteins (

Carbohydrate- and conformation-dependent cargo capture for ER-exit [PDF]

, 2005
Some secretory proteins leave the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by a receptor-mediated cargo capture mechanism, but the signals required for the cargo-receptor interaction are largely unknown.
