Activity summary

Uteroglobin also known as Clara cell secretory protein (CC16) is a small secreted protein with a molecular mass of approximately 16 kDa. Expressed chiefly in the respiratory epithelium of the lungs particularly by Clara cells it is also present in other tissues such as the kidney and uterus. Uteroglobin acts as an anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory protein playing an important role in protecting epithelial cells from damage by various harmful agents.

Biological function summary

Uteroglobin serves as a multifunctional secretory agent contributing to the regulation of inflammation and tissue remodeling. It does not form part of a larger complex but acts independently. By binding and inhibiting pro-inflammatory mediators like phospholipase A2 Uteroglobin reduces the production of arachidonic acid derivatives which are involved in inflammatory processes. Additionally it acts as a chemoattractant for certain immune cells further modulating immune responses.

Pathways

Uteroglobin integrates into the immune response and inflammation pathways. It indirectly interacts with proteins such as cytokines and chemokines influencing pathways like the arachidonic acid metabolism pathway and the leukocyte extravasation signaling pathway. These interactions reduce inflammatory response and regulate immune cell movement demonstrating its anti-inflammatory function.

Associated diseases and disorders

Low levels of Uteroglobin have been associated with respiratory conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). By affecting inflammation pathways Uteroglobin interacts with inflammatory cytokines which exacerbate these conditions. Additionally its connection to proteins involved in these pathways makes it a potential biomarker for assessing lung injury and monitoring disease progression.
