C-type lectin domain family 4, member E
Mincle, Macrophage-inducible C-type lectin, Clecsf9, C-type lectin superfamily member 9, Clec4e
This gene encodes a member of the C-type lectin/C-type lectin-like domain (CTL/CTLD) superfamily. Members of this family share a common protein fold and have diverse functions, such as cell adhesion, cell-cell signalling, glycoprotein turnover, and roles in inflammation and immune response. The encoded type II transmembrane protein is a downstream target of CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (C/EBP), beta (CEBPB) and may play a role in inflammation. Alternative splice variants have been described but their full-length sequence has not been determined. This gene is closely linked to other CTL/CTLD superfamily members on chromosome 12p13 in the natural killer gene complex region. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] (from

Mincle
Immune sensing of microbial glycolipids and related conjugates by T cells and the pattern recognition receptors MCL and Mincle.
Review
New
Melbourne, Australia. In Carbohydr Res, Feb 2016
The pattern recognition receptors macrophage C-type lectin (MCL) and macrophage inducible C-type lectin (Mincle) receptors sense glycolipids and through signalling initiate cellular activation, shaping immune responses to peptide antigens, including the differentiation of naïve T cells into conventional effector T helper cells.
Mincle suppresses Toll-like receptor 4 activation.
New
New York City, United States. In J Leukoc Biol, Feb 2016
We found that Mincle, a C-type lectin receptor, regulates proinflammatory Toll-like receptor 4 signaling.

New
Aberdeen, United Kingdom. In Eur J Immunol, Dec 2015
UNASSIGNED: The C-type lectin receptor (CTLR), Clec4d (MCL, CLECSF8), is a member of the Dectin-2 cluster of CTLRs, which also includes the related receptors Mincle and Dectin-2.
Phenotypic and Functional Characterization of Monoclonal Antibodies with Specificity for Rhesus Macaque CD200, CD200R and Mincle.
Atlanta, United States. In Plos One, 2014
In efforts to gain further insight on the potential role of these lectin-like molecules, our laboratory generated monoclonal antibodies (mAb) against the human analogs of rhesus macaque CD200, CD200R and Mincle, since the rhesus macaques are accepted as the most reliable animal model to study human HIV infection.
Induction of Mincle by Helicobacter pylori and consequent anti-inflammatory signaling denote a bacterial survival strategy.
Hyderābād, India. In Sci Rep, 2014
The recognition of glyco or carbohydrate moieties by Mincle (Macrophage inducible C-type lectin) is emerging as a crucial element in anti-fungal and anti-mycobacterial immunity.
AAL exacerbates pro-inflammatory response in macrophages by regulating Mincle/Syk/Card9 signaling along with the Nlrp3 inflammasome assembly.
Wuhan, China. In Am J Transl Res, 2014
Mechanistic studies revealed that AAL likely targets macrophages through receptor Mincle to activate Syk/Card9 signaling, which then couples to the Nlrp3 inflammasome assembly.
Mincle, an Innate Immune Receptor, Is Expressed in Urothelial Cancer Cells of Papillomavirus-Associated Urothelial Tumors of Cattle.
Napoli, Italy. In Plos One, 2014
BACKGROUND: Mincle, macrophage-inducible C-type lectin, is a member of C-type lectin receptors.
MCL and Mincle: C-Type Lectin Receptors That Sense Damaged Self and Pathogen-Associated Molecular Patterns.
Review
Melbourne, Australia. In Front Immunol, 2013
Macrophage C-type lectin (MCL) and macrophage inducible C-type lectin (Mincle) comprise part of an extensive repertoire of pattern recognition receptors with the ability to sense damage-associated and pathogen-associated molecular patterns.
C-type lectin MCL is an FcRγ-coupled receptor that mediates the adjuvanticity of mycobacterial cord factor.
Impact
Fukuoka, Japan. In Immunity, 2013
We herein report that the C-type lectin MCL (also called Clec4d) is a TDM receptor that is likely to arise from gene duplication of Mincle (also called Clec4e).
The Dectin-2 family of C-type lectin-like receptors: an update.
Review
Aberdeen, United Kingdom. In Int Immunol, 2013
Of relevance here is the dendritic cell-associated C-type lectin-2 (Dectin-2) family of CTLRs, which includes blood dendritic cell antigen 2 (BDCA-2), dendritic cell immunoactivating receptor (DCAR), dendritic cell immunoreceptor (DCIR), Dectin-2, C-type lectin superfamily 8 (CLECSF8) and macrophage-inducible C-type lectin (Mincle).
C-type lectin receptor-induced NF-κB activation in innate immune and inflammatory responses.
Review
Houston, United States. In Cell Mol Immunol, 2012
Recent studies indicate that many CLRs, such as Dectin-1, Dectin-2 and Mincle, function as pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) recognizing carbohydrate ligands from infected microorganisms.
Syk kinase-coupled C-type lectin receptors engage protein kinase C-σ to elicit Card9 adaptor-mediated innate immunity.

GeneRIF
Tromsø, Norway. In Plos One, 2011
silencing of renal DNaseI gene expression initiates a cascade of inflammatory signals including activation of Toll like receptors and Clec4e, leading to progression of both murine and human lupus nephritis

Our data suggest that Mincle is induced in adipose tissue macrophages in obesity at least partly through the saturated fatty acid/TLR4/NF-kappaB pathway, thereby suggesting its pathophysiologic role in obesity-induced adipose tissue inflammation.
