Foxp3 | Forkhead box protein P3, C-terminally processed; Transcriptional regulator which is crucial for the development and inhibitory function of regulatory T-cells (Treg). Plays an essential role in maintaining homeostasis of the immune system by allowing the acquisition of full suppressive function and stability of the Treg lineage, and by directly modulating the expansion and function of conventional T-cells. Can act either as a transcriptional repressor or a transcriptional activator depending on its interactions with other transcription factors, histone acetylases and deacetylases. The s [...] (429 aa) | ||||
Gpr18 | N-arachidonyl glycine receptor; Receptor for endocannabinoid N-arachidonyl glycine (NAGly) (By similarity). However, conflicting results about the role of NAGly as an agonist are reported. Can also be activated by plant-derived and synthetic cannabinoid agonists (By similarity). The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which inhibit adenylyl cyclase (By similarity). May contribute to regulation of the immune system (By similarity). Is required for normal homeostasis of CD8+ subsets of intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) (CD8alphaalpha and CD8alphabeta IELs) in small intst [...] (331 aa) |
