Specificity: This antibody is specific for murine TIM-2, a transmembrane protein that is expressed on activated T cells and preferentially on differentiated Th2 cells. A blockade of TIM-2/TIM-2 ligand interaction results in T cell hyperproliferation and Th2 cytokine production. TIM-2 plays a critical role in the development of atopic disease and other Th2-biased immune responses.
TIM-2 recognizes T-cell immunoglobulin mucin 2, a transmembrane glycoprotein and member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, expressed by activated lymphocytes, developmentally in the 8-cell embryo and blastocyst, and preferentially up-regulated in Th2 cells and down-regulated in Th1 cells. Tim-2 acts as a negative regulator of Th2 cells, and is implicated to play a critical role in the development of atopic disease and other Th2-biased immune responses. Tim-2 also acts as a receptor for Semaphorin 4A, a transmembrane protein expressed on dendritic cells and B cells, which plays a role in the guidance of axonal migration during neuronal development, and has been shown to enhance T cell activation.
