SLAM receptors triggered by homo- or heterotypic cell-cell interactions are modulating the activation and differentiation of a wide variety of immune cells and thus are involved in the regulation and interconnection of both innate and adaptive immune response. Activities are controlled by presence or absence of small cytoplasmic adapter proteins, SH2D1A/SAP and/or SH2D1B/EAT-2. Triggers cytolytic activity only in natural killer cells (NK) expressing high surface densities of natural cytotoxicity receptors (PubMed:11489943, PubMed:16920955). Positive signaling in NK cells implicates phosphorylation of VAV1. NK cell activation seems to depend on SH2D1B and not on SH2D1A (PubMed:16920955). In conjunction with SLAMF1 controls the transition between positive selection and the subsequent expansion and differentiation of the thymocytic natural killer T (NKT) cell lineage (By similarity). Promotes T-cell differentiation into a helper T-cell Th17 phenotype leading to increased IL-17 secretion; the costimulatory activity requires SH2D1A (PubMed:22184727, PubMed:16920955). Promotes recruitment of RORC to the IL-17 promoter (PubMed:22989874). In conjunction with SLAMF1 and CD84/SLAMF5 may be a negative regulator of the humoral immune response. In the absence of SH2D1A/SAP can transmit negative signals to CD4(+) T-cells and NKT cells. Negatively regulates germinal center formation by inhibiting T-cell:B-cell adhesion; the function probably implicates increased association with PTPN6/SHP-1 via ITSMs in absence of SH2D1A/SAP. However, reported to be involved in maintaining B-cell tolerance in germinal centers and in preventing autoimmunity (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9ET39, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11489943, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16920955, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22184727, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22989874}. |V-set| |T-helper 17 cell lineage commitment| |T-helper 17 cell differentiation| |T-helper 17 type immune response| |T-helper cell lineage commitment| |CD4-positive, alpha-beta T cell lineage commitment| |alpha-beta T cell lineage commitment| |CD4-positive or CD8-positive, alpha-beta T cell lineage commitment| |positive regulation of interleukin-17 production| |T cell lineage commitment| |positive T cell selection| |T-helper cell differentiation| |CD4-positive, alpha-beta T cell differentiation involved in immune response| |alpha-beta T cell differentiation involved in immune response| |alpha-beta T cell activation involved in immune response| |regulation of interleukin-17 production| |positive regulation of natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity| |T cell differentiation involved in immune response| |positive regulation of natural killer cell mediated immunity| |CD4-positive, alpha-beta T cell differentiation| |CD4-positive, alpha-beta T cell activation| |T cell selection| |regulation of natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity| |regulation of natural killer cell mediated immunity| |alpha-beta T cell differentiation| |positive regulation of leukocyte mediated cytotoxicity| |alpha-beta T cell activation| |positive regulation of interferon-gamma production| |T cell activation involved in immune response| |positive regulation of cell killing| |regulation of leukocyte mediated cytotoxicity| |regulation of interferon-gamma production| |regulation of cell killing| |positive regulation of lymphocyte mediated immunity| |lymphocyte activation involved in immune response| |positive regulation of leukocyte mediated immunity| |T cell differentiation| |regulation of lymphocyte mediated immunity| |regulation of leukocyte mediated immunity| |positive regulation of immune effector process| |T cell activation| |lymphocyte differentiation| |cell fate commitment| |adaptive immune response based on somatic recombination of immune receptors built from immunoglobulin superfamily domains| |leukocyte differentiation| |positive regulation of innate immune response| |positive regulation of response to biotic stimulus| |lymphocyte activation| |positive regulation of cytokine production| |regulation of innate immune response| |regulation of immune effector process| |positive regulation of defense response| |positive regulation of multi-organism process| |regulation of response to biotic stimulus| |hemopoiesis| |positive regulation of response to external stimulus| |hematopoietic or lymphoid organ development| |adaptive immune response| |leukocyte activation involved in immune response| |cell activation involved in immune response| |immune system development| |regulation of cytokine production| |regulation of defense response| |innate immune response| |regulation of multi-organism process| |positive regulation of immune response| |leukocyte activation| |defense response to other organism| |cell activation| |immune effector process| |regulation of response to external stimulus| |regulation of immune response| |positive regulation of immune system process| |response to other organism| |response to external biotic stimulus| |response to biotic stimulus| |defense response| |regulation of response to stress| |regulation of immune system process| |positive regulation of multicellular organismal process| |immune response| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
