CD1c also known as CD1c molecule or R7 is a transmembrane glycoprotein with a molecular weight of approximately 43 kDa. It belongs to the CD1 family of glycoproteins which share structural similarity to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) proteins. CD1c presents lipid and glycolipid antigens to T cells. It is expressed on professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) like dendritic cells B cells and some monocytes. This expression allows CD1c to function in the immune response by presenting specialized antigens to T cells.
Biological function summary
The function of CD1c involves the presentation of lipid antigens which plays a role in immune recognition. CD1c is a part of a complex that includes β2-microglobulin which stabilizes its structure for antigen presentation. CD1c contributes to the immune surveillance by enabling the recognition of microbial lipid antigens as well as self-lipids by specific T cell subsets. This function supports the body's immune defense by identifying and reacting to potential pathogenic lipids.
Pathways
CD1c is involved in immune response pathways that center around antigen presentation. It interacts with other proteins like CD1a CD1b and CD1d expanding the range of antigens that T cells can recognize. CD1c participates in the lipid antigen presentation pathway influencing both innate and adaptive immunity. The presentation of lipid antigens by CD1c to T cells can trigger signaling pathways that affect both immune activation and resolution.
CD1c is implicated in autoimmune diseases and infections. Its role in antigen presentation makes it a potential factor in autoimmune conditions where immune recognition errors might occur. Additionally CD1c may relate to infectious diseases where mycobacteria or other pathogens present unique lipid antigens. Through its interaction with T cell receptors CD1c can impact how well immune responses are mounted against these challenges making it a notable target for therapeutic development and research.
