CC -!- FUNCTION: Binds galactosides (PubMed:18005988). Has high affinity for
CC the Forssman pentasaccharide (PubMed:18005988). Ligand for HAVCR2/TIM3
CC (PubMed:16286920). Binding to HAVCR2 induces T-helper type 1 lymphocyte
CC (Th1) death (PubMed:16286920). Also stimulates bactericidal activity in
CC infected macrophages by causing macrophage activation and IL1B
CC secretion which restricts intracellular bacterial growth (By
CC similarity). Ligand for P4HB; the interaction retains P4HB at the cell
CC surface of Th2 T-helper cells, increasing disulfide reductase activity
CC at the plasma membrane, altering the plasma membrane redox state and
CC enhancing cell migration (PubMed:21670307). Ligand for CD44; the
CC interaction enhances binding of SMAD3 to the FOXP3 promoter, leading to
CC up-regulation of FOXP3 expression and increased induced regulatory T
CC (iTreg) cell stability and suppressive function (By similarity).
CC Promotes ability of mesenchymal stromal cells to suppress T-cell
CC proliferation (PubMed:23817958). Expands regulatory T-cells and induces
CC cytotoxic T-cell apoptosis following virus infection (PubMed:20209097).
CC Activates ERK1/2 phosphorylation inducing cytokine (IL-6, IL-8, IL-12)
CC and chemokine (CCL2) production in mast and dendritic cells
CC (PubMed:24465902, PubMed:16116184). Inhibits degranulation and induces
CC apoptosis of mast cells (PubMed:24465902). Induces maturation and
CC migration of dendritic cells (PubMed:25754930, PubMed:16116184).
CC Inhibits natural killer (NK) cell function (PubMed:23408620). Can
CC transform NK cell phenotype from peripheral to decidual during
CC pregnancy (PubMed:25578313). Astrocyte derived galectin-9 enhances
CC microglial TNF production (By similarity). May play a role in
CC thymocyte-epithelial interactions relevant to the biology of the
CC thymus. May provide the molecular basis for urate flux across cell
CC membranes, allowing urate that is formed during purine metabolism to
CC efflux from cells and serving as an electrogenic transporter that plays
CC an important role in renal and gastrointestinal urate excretion (By
CC similarity). Highly selective to the anion urate (By similarity).
