CD300C

CD300C, also known as CMRF35-like molecule 5, is a protein encoded by the CD300C gene. It is a member of the CD300 family of cell surface receptors. These receptors play crucial roles in immune regulation by interacting with various ligands. CD300C is involved in modulating immune cell activation and inflammatory responses through signaling pathways related to immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation or inhibitory motifs.
Dysregulation of CD300C has been associated with autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and some types of cancer. In drug development, targeting CD300C has emerged as a potential strategy. Scientists are exploring antibodies or small - molecule inhibitors to regulate its function and potentially treat related diseases. This area of research holds promise for future therapeutic advancements.
