CC -!- FUNCTION: Binds galactosides (By similarity). Has high affinity for the
CC Forssman pentasaccharide (By similarity). Ligand for HAVCR2/TIM3 (By
CC similarity). Binding to HAVCR2 induces T-helper type 1 lymphocyte (Th1)
CC death (By similarity). Also stimulates bactericidal activity in
CC infected macrophages by causing macrophage activation and IL1B
CC secretion which restricts intracellular bacterial growth
CC (PubMed:20937702). Ligand for P4HB; the interaction retains P4HB at the
CC cell surface of Th2 T-helper cells, increasing disulfide reductase
CC activity at the plasma membrane, altering the plasma membrane redox
CC state and enhancing cell migration (PubMed:21670307). Ligand for CD44;
CC the interaction enhances binding of SMAD3 to the FOXP3 promoter,
CC leading to up-regulation of FOXP3 expression and increased induced
CC regulatory T (iTreg) cell stability and suppressive function
CC (PubMed:25065622). Promotes ability of mesenchymal stromal cells to
CC suppress T-cell proliferation (By similarity). Expands regulatory T-
CC cells and induces cytotoxic T-cell apoptosis following virus infection
CC (By similarity). Activates ERK1/2 phosphorylation inducing cytokine
CC (IL-6, IL-8, IL-12) and chemokine (CCL2) production in mast and
CC dendritic cells (By similarity). Inhibits degranulation and induces
CC apoptosis of mast cells (By similarity). Induces maturation and
CC migration of dendritic cells (By similarity). Inhibits natural killer
CC (NK) cell function (PubMed:23408620). Can transform NK cell phenotype
CC from peripheral to decidual during pregnancy (By similarity). Astrocyte
CC derived galectin-9 enhances microglial TNF production
CC (PubMed:25158758). May play a role in thymocyte-epithelial interactions
CC relevant to the biology of the thymus. May provide the molecular basis
CC for urate flux across cell membranes, allowing urate that is formed
CC during purine metabolism to efflux from cells and serving as an
CC electrogenic transporter that plays an important role in renal and
CC gastrointestinal urate excretion (By similarity). Highly selective to
CC the anion urate (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O00182,

CC -!- FUNCTION: [Isoform 2]: Acts as an eosinophil chemoattractant (By
CC similarity). It also inhibits angiogenesis (By similarity). Suppresses
CC IFNG production by natural killer cells. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O00182,

CC Note=May also be secreted by a non-classical secretory pathway
CC (PubMed:9038233). Secreted by mesenchymal stromal cells upon IFNG
CC stimulation (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O00182,

CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Accentuated expression in liver and thymus of
CC embryo, detected in embryonic heart, brain, lung, liver, and kidney.
CC Highly expressed in adult thymus, small intestine, and liver, and to a
CC lesser extent in lung, kidney, spleen, cardiac, and skeletal muscle.
CC Barely detectable in brain and reticulocyte. Expressed in placenta,
CC uterus and decidua during pregnancy (PubMed:23242525). Expressed in
CC CD4+ T-cells with higher levels in iTreg cells than other T-cell types
CC and sustained high levels throughout iTreg cell differentiation (at
CC protein level) (PubMed:25065622). Expressed in myeloid cells in lung
CC (PubMed:20937702). Constitutively expressed in microglia
CC (PubMed:25158758). Isoform 1 is expressed exclusively in the small
CC intestine. Isoform 2 expression in decidua increases in pathological
CC pregnancy from gestation day 7.5 to 13.5 and it is higher than in
CC normal pregnancy (PubMed:23242525). Isoform 3 expression in decidua is
CC higher in normal pregnancy than in pathological pregnancy
CC (PubMed:23242525). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20937702,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:23242525, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25065622,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:25158758}.
CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: The expression increases with successive stages of
CC embryonic development.
CC -!- INDUCTION: By viral mimic polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (poly I:C)
CC and lipopolysaccharides (LPS) in microglia (PubMed:25158758). Up-
CC regulated in macrophages following infection with Mycobacterium
CC tuberculosis (PubMed:20937702). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20937702,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:25158758}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Contains two homologous but distinct carbohydrate-binding
CC domains.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Increased natural killer (NK) cell activity with
CC enhanced degranulation, higher expression of NK cell activating
CC receptors, increased frequency of intermediate and mature NK cells, and
CC greater production of interferon-gamma following murine cytomegalovirus
CC infection (PubMed:23408620). Defective iTreg cell differentiation with
CC impaired Foxp3 expression, reduced stability and suppressor function of
CC iTreg cells and reduced frequency of iTreg cells but not natural
CC regulatory T (nTreg) cells in lamina propria (PubMed:25065622).
