摘要
TIM-3是TIMs家族中一个重要的成员,具有多种生物学作用。它是区分Th1/Th2细胞特异性的表面标志,还参与机体的固有免疫和特异性免疫应答的调节,与多种临床疾病的致病机制密切相关。本文就TIM-3的结构、表达、配体及与多种临床疾病的关系作一综述。
TIM-3 is an important member of TIMs gene family with diverse biological functions,which is not only the specific surface marker for distinguishing Th1 and Th2 cells,but also the important molecule involved in the regulation of innate immune response and adaptive immune response.TIM-3 is also connected tightly with pathogenesis of some clinical diseases.Here we have a review on the structure,expression,ligands of TIM-3 and correlation with some clinical diseases.
