Target Details for TREM2

Target: TREM2 (Triggering Receptor Expressed On Myeloid Cells 2 (TREM2))

Alternative Name: TREM2 (TREM2 Products)

Background: Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2, Triggering receptor expressed on monocytes 2,TREM2 (triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-2) is a type I transmembrane microglial surface receptor that is found to be expressed on myeloid cells including monocyte-derived dendritic cells, osteoclasts and bone-marrow derived macrophage. TREM2 protein transduces intracellular signals that regulate microglial functions such as cytokine production, migration, proliferation, phagocytosis, cell survival, synapse elimination, and compaction of amyloid plaques1,2.The TREM2 structure includes an immunoglobulin-like extracellular domain responsible for ligand binding, a transmembrane region and a short cytoplasmatic tail. The protein also includes an ectodomain that binds anionic and zwitterionic lipids, apolipoproteins and lipoprotein particles2,3.Studies show that TREM2 knockout mice display decreased levels of inflammatory cytokines. TREM2 has been shown to control two signaling pathways in the brain: regulation of phagocytosis and suppression of inflammatory reactivity. Nasu-Hakola disease, a rare and fatal disease, and polycystic lipomembranous osteodysplasia with sclerosing leukoencephalopathy has been found to be linked to homozygous loss-of-function mutations in TREM2 protein1,2. Studies also show that variants of TREM2 are associated with Alzheimer's disease2,3.
