摘要嗜乳脂蛋白样-2(BTNL2)是新近发现的B7家族样分子,其mRNA广泛表达于淋巴组织及非淋巴组织上.BTNL2的受体可诱导性表达于活化的T细胞和B细胞.BTNL2与其受体结合后可抑制T细胞的活化及细胞因子的产生.已有研究发现BTNL2基因突变与结节病、包涵体皮肌炎等疾病发病相关,在自身免疫性疾病治疗、移植排斥等方面可能起重要作用.

abstractsButyrophilin-like 2(BTNL2) is a newly discovered member of the B7 family-like molecule. BTNL2 mRNA is highly expressed in lymphoid tissues as well as in non-lymphoid tissues. The receptor of BTNL2 is in-ducibly expressed on activated T and B lymphocytes. BTNL2 inhibits T cell proliferation and cytokine produc-tion. The mutation of BTNL2 has been recently reported to associate with the inflammatory autoimmune disea-ses: sarcoidosis and sporadic inclusion body myositis. BTNL2 is thus important in immune diseases and immu-notherapy.
