UniProt annotation for TREM2_HUMAN » Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2
FUNCTION: May have a role in chronic inflammations and may stimulate production of constitutive rather than inflammatory chemokines and cytokines. Forms a receptor signaling complex with TYROBP and triggers activation of the immune responses in macrophages and dendritic cells.

SUBUNIT: Interacts with TYROBP/DAP12.

TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed on macrophages and dendritic cells but not on granulocytes or monocytes. In the CNS strongest expression seen in the basal ganglia, corpus callosum, medulla oblongata and spinal cord.

DISEASE: Polycystic lipomembranous osteodysplasia with sclerosing leukoencephalopathy (PLOSL) OMIM: Recessively inherited disease characterized by a combination of psychotic symptoms rapidly progressing to presenile dementia and bone cysts restricted to wrists and ankles. PLOSL has a global distribution, although most of the patients have been diagnosed in Finland and Japan, with an estimated population prevalence of 2x10(-6) in the Finns. by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
