Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **B7 Family Member:** HHLA2 is a member of the B7 family, which is a group of immune-regulatory molecules that interact with CD28 and CTLA-4 receptors on T cells. 2. **Cellular Expression:** HHLA2 is significantly expressed in various cell types, including retinal bipolar neurons, blood vessel endothelial cells, and hematopoietic stem cells. 3. **Molecular Function:** HHLA2 interacts with CD28 and CTLA-4 receptors, modulating T cell activation, proliferation, and cytokine production. 4. **Pathway Involvement:** HHLA2 is implicated in the regulation of cytokine production, T cell receptor signaling pathways, and the activation of activated T cell proliferation. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **T Cell Costimulation:** HHLA2 interacts with CD28 and CTLA-4 receptors, modulating T cell activation and proliferation. 2. **Positive Regulation of Activated T Cell Proliferation:** HHLA2 enhances T cell proliferation, contributing to immune responses. 3. **Positive Regulation of Cytokine Production:** HHLA2 regulates cytokine production, influencing the development of immune responses. 4. **Signaling Receptor Binding:** HHLA2 interacts with CD28 and CTLA-4 receptors, modulating signaling pathways involved in T cell activation. 5. **Regulation of Cytokine Production:** HHLA2 regulates cytokine production, influencing the development of immune responses. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Autoimmune Diseases:** Altered expression of HHLA2 has been implicated in various autoimmune diseases, including multiple sclerosis and type 1 diabetes. 2. **Cancer Immunology:** HHLA2's role in T cell activation and cytokine production makes it a potential target for cancer immunotherapy. 3. **Infectious Diseases:** HHLA2's involvement in immune regulation suggests its potential role in the development of infectious diseases. 4. **Retinal Diseases:** HHLA2's expression in retinal cells highlights its potential role in retinal diseases, such as age-related macular degeneration. In conclusion, HHLA2 is a critical component of the B7 family, regulating T cell activation, proliferation, and cytokine production. Its clinical significance extends to autoimmune diseases, cancer immunology, infectious diseases, and retinal diseases. Further research is necessary to fully elucidate the functional significance of HHLA2 and its potential applications in human diseases.
