Biological function summary
HHLA2 acts as a co-inhibitory molecule that modulates T cell activity functioning to suppress T cell proliferation and cytokine production. It engages in the immune checkpoint pathways which are critical for maintaining immune tolerance and preventing over-activation of the immune system. HHLA2 does not act alone but rather interacts with other B7 family proteins in these pathways. It influences CTLA-4 and PD-1 mediated pathways by modulating the immune checkpoints adjusting the immune response based on physiological needs.
Pathways
HHLA2 fits into the immune checkpoint regulation pathways. It is known to modulate the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway which is essential for T cell immune evasion in cancer cells. Through its interactions HHLA2 can impact the tumor microenvironment by influencing immune cell infiltration and activation which is a significant aspect of cancer progression and immune evasion strategies. It is also related to CTLA-4 regulatory pathways which play an important role in maintaining immune homeostasis by negatively regulating T cell activation.
