Supplementary information

ICAM2 also known as IC2 or ICAM-2 is a cell surface glycoprotein with a molecular mass of approximately 55-65 kDa. It plays an important role in immune response. The protein belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily and interacts specifically with integrin molecules. ICAM2 is expressed widely across many tissues including endothelial cells platelets and leukocytes. Its primary function involves facilitating stable adhesion between leukocytes and endothelial cells which is essential for leukocyte transmigration.
Biological function summary

ICAM2 helps in immune function by serving as an adhesion molecule. It does not form part of a larger protein complex but instead it acts independently to mediate interactions between cells. It contributes to leukocyte rolling and firm adhesion stages necessary for leukocyte extravasation. This function is important in immune surveillance and response to infection allowing immune cells to quickly migrate to sites of inflammation.

Pathways

ICAM2 operates in the leukocyte adhesion and transendothelial migration pathways. It interacts closely with integrins especially LFA-1 present on leukocytes and this interaction supports cell movement during immune responses. It also participates in signaling pathways that activate immune cells further aiding in the regulation of immune cell activity. These interactions make ICAM2 a critical component in immunological communication and signal transduction pathways.

ICAM2 is associated with conditions involving immune dysfunction and inflammation. For instance abnormal expression of ICAM2 has been linked to inflammatory diseases such as atherosclerosis. Additionally it plays a role in the pathology of multiple sclerosis where it might influence the migration of immune cells across the blood-brain barrier. Its relationship with integrins highlights its potential relevance in therapeutic strategies to modulate immune responses in these diseases.

Target data

Cell adhesion molecule that functions as a receptor ligand of the signaling receptor ITGAL : ITGB2/LFA-1 (lymphocyte-function associated (LFA) molecule 1) ensuring leukocyte cell-cell adhesion on resting cells (PubMed : 1401904). Also endothelial blood vessels receptor ligand of dendritic cell (DC) CD209 signaling receptor that mediates triggering transendothelial migration of DC presursors from blood into peripheral tissues and, subsequently, into lymphoid tissues. Mediates adhesive interactions important for antigen presentation, lymphocyte recirculation, and other cellular interactions important for immune response and surveillance (By similarity).
