Activity summary

SIRP alpha also known as CD172a is a transmembrane receptor protein with a mass ranging between 70-110 kDa due to glycosylation. This protein extensively expresses on the surface of myeloid cells neurons and a subset of T-cells and is part of the immunoglobulin superfamily. SIRP alpha interacts with its ligand CD47 a widely expressed glycoprotein involved in immune response regulation. Its mechanical action primarily involves signal regulation through the recruitment of SHP-1 and SHP-2 two cytoplasmic tyrosine phosphatases.

Biological function summary

SIRP alpha functions significantly in the regulation of phagocytosis acting as a "don't eat me" signal to macrophages upon binding with CD47. It does not act alone; rather it is part of a complex that recruits SHP-1 and SHP-2 leading to inhibition of dephosphorylation activities essential for engulfment processes. This regulatory mechanism is important for maintaining cellular homeostasis ensuring that healthy cells are not mistakenly destroyed by the immune system.

Pathways

SIRP alpha plays an important role in the innate immune pathways involving the regulation of phagocytosis and cell-cell adhesion. Particularly it fits into the immune checkpoint pathways where it interacts closely with proteins like CD47 and plays a role in the interaction between the immune system and cancer cells. Through these pathways SIRP alpha helps maintain balance in the immune response allowing for the recognition of self versus non-self therefore preventing autoimmunity while facilitating the clearance of pathogens.

Associated diseases and disorders

SIRP alpha is implicated in cancer and autoimmune diseases. In cancer its interaction with CD47 allows tumor cells to escape phagocytosis promoting tumor survival and growth. In autoimmune disorders dysregulated SIRP alpha expression or signaling could miscommunicate immune signals leading to the destruction of healthy tissue. Understanding the link between SIRP alpha and these conditions can reveal potential targets for therapeutic development especially using inhibitors or modulators targeting the SIRP alpha-CD47 interaction.
