C-type lectin-like receptor 2: roles and drug target

Thrombosis Journal
C-type lectin-like receptor-2 (CLEC-2) is a member of the C-type lectin superfamily of cell surface receptors. The first confirmed endogenous and exogenous ligands of CLEC-2 are podoplanin and rhodocytin, respectively.

C-Type Lectin Receptors

, 2016
C-type lectins, originally defined as proteins binding carbohydrates in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner, form a large family containing soluble and membrane-bound proteins. Among them, those expressed on phagocytes and working as pathogen pattern-recognition receptors were designated as C-type lectin receptors (CLRs), in accordance with Toll-like receptors ...

Intradomain Allosteric Network Modulates Calcium Affinity of the C‑Type Lectin Receptor Langerin [PDF]

, 2016
Antigen uptake and processing by innate immune cells is crucial to initiate the immune response. Therein, the endocytic C-type lectin receptors serve as pattern recognition receptors, detecting pathogens by their glycan structures. Herein, we studied the

Signaling by Myeloid C-Type Lectin Receptors in Immunity and Homeostasis [PDF]

Annual Review of Immunology, 2012
Myeloid cells are key drivers of physiological responses to pathogen invasion or tissue damage. Members of the C-type lectin receptor (CLR) family stand out among the specialized receptors utilized by myeloid cells to orchestrate these responses. CLR ligands include carbohydrate, protein, and lipid components of both pathogens and self, which variably ...

Clec4A4 is a regulatory receptor for dendritic cells that impairs inflammation and T-cell immunity

Nature Communications, 2016
Clec4A4 is a C-type lectin receptor highly expressed by CD8α− dendritic cells. Here the authors show that its loss of function results in enhanced T cell responses and exacerbated autoimmunity, implicating Clec4A4 in limiting activation of the CD8α ...

Intense isolectin-B4 binding in rat dorsal root ganglion neurons distinguishes c-fiber nociceptors with broad action potentials and high nav1.9 expression [PDF]

, 2006
Binding to isolectin-B4 (IB4) and expression of tyrosine kinase A (trkA) (the high-affinity NGF receptor) have been used to define two different subgroups of nociceptive small dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons. We previously showed that only nociceptors

AmpliSeq Screening of Genes Encoding the C-Type Lectin Receptors and Their Signaling Components Reveals a Common Variant in MASP1 Associated with Pulmonary Tuberculosis in an Indian Population

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Tuberculosis (TB) is a multifactorial disease governed by bacterial, host and environmental factors. On the host side, growing evidence shows the crucial role that genetic variants play in the susceptibility to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection.

The diagnostic role of C2PAC index in cases of sepsis-induced coagulopathy (SIC)

The Egyptian Journal of Bronchology, 2023
Background To study the potential role of the C2PAC index (a ratio of soluble type C lectin-like receptor 2 level sCLEC-2 and platelet count) in sepsis-induced coagulopathy with the possibility of using this index as an early predictor in sepsis and ...

Rat macrophage C-type lectin is an activating receptor expressed by phagocytic cells.

PLoS ONE, 2013
Macrophage C-type lectin (MCL) is a membrane surface receptor encoded by the Antigen Presenting Lectin-like gene Complex (APLEC). We generated a mouse monoclonal antibody for the study of this receptor in the rat. We demonstrate that rat MCL is expressed
