Summary
Havcr2 is constitutively expressed on human resting monocytes/macrophages and functions as a cap to block Il12, which is a key pro-inflammatory cytokine linking innate and adaptive immune responses. Havcr2 plays a crucial role in the negative regulation of innate immune responses through crosstalk with Pdcd1 and Socs1 to limit Stat1 phosphorylation in HCV infection. (Demonstrated in human)

Summary
[Homo sapiens] HAVCR2 is constitutively expressed on human resting monocytes/macrophages and functions as a cap to block IL12, which is a key pro-inflammatory cytokine linking innate and adaptive immune responses. HAVCR2 plays a crucial role in the negative regulation of innate immune responses through crosstalk with PDCD1 and SOCS1 to limit STAT1 phosphorylation in HCV infection.
[Homo sapiens] TLR activation promotes HAVCR2 and LGALS9 association within the same macrophage to differentially regulate IL12/IL23 expressions via STAT3 phosphorylation.
[Homo sapiens] Hepatitis C virus (HCV)-induced, MIR155-regulated HAVCR2 expression regulates natural killer cell function, suggesting a novel mechanism for balancing immune clearance and immune injury during chronic viral infection.
Entrez Gene
Summary This gene does not have any Entrez summary - the following is the summary from its human ortholog ENSG00000135077:
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily, and TIM family of proteins. CD4-positive T helper lymphocytes can be divided into types 1 (Th1) and 2 (Th2) on the basis of their cytokine secretion patterns. Th1 cells are involved in cell-mediated immunity to intracellular pathogens and delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions, whereas, Th2 cells are involved in the control of extracellular helminthic infections and the promotion of atopic and allergic diseases. This protein is a Th1-specific cell surface protein that regulates macrophage activation, and inhibits Th1-mediated auto- and alloimmune responses, and promotes immunological tolerance.
