InnateDB Annotation
Summary
Olfm4 is a negative regulator of neutrophil bactericidal activity by restricting cathepsin C-mediated protease activities.
InnateDB Annotation from Orthologs
Summary
[Homo sapiens] OLFM4 exerts considerable influence on the host defence against H. pylori infection acting through NOD1 and NOD2 mediated NF-kappaB activation and subsequent cytokines and chemokines production, which in turn inhibit host immune response and contribute to persistence of H. pylori colonization.
[Homo sapiens] OLFM4 is a negative regulator of neutrophil bactericidal activity by restricting cathepsin C-mediated protease activities. (Demonstrated in mice)
Entrez Gene
Summary This gene does not have any Entrez summary - the following is the summary from its human ortholog ENSG00000102837:
This gene was originally cloned from human myeloblasts and found to be selectively expressed in inflammed colonic epithelium. This gene encodes a member of the olfactomedin family. The encoded protein is an antiapoptotic factor that promotes tumor growth and is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that facilitates cell adhesion. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
