Ligand for CD44; the interaction enhances binding of SMAD3 to the FOXP3 promoter, leading to up-regulation of FOXP3 expression and increased induced regulatory T (iTreg) cell stability and suppressive function (By similarity). Promotes ability of mesenchymal stromal cells to suppress T-cell proliferation (By similarity). Expands regulatory T-cells and induces cytotoxic T-cell apoptosis following virus infection (By similarity). Activates ERK1/2 phosphorylation inducing cytokine (IL-6, IL-8, IL-12) and chemokine (CCL2) production in mast and dendritic cells (By similarity). Inhibits degranulation and induces apoptosis of mast cells (By similarity). Induces maturation and migration of dendritic cells (By similarity).

| Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C13 | Q8VC28 | [Function: Catalyzes the dehydrogenation of 17-beta-hydroxysteroids. May also exhibit significant activity with a variety of cyclic and alicyclic alcohols. Uses both NAD and NADP, but the activity is much greater with NAD than with NADP (By similarity).] |
| Long-chain fatty acid transport protein 1 | P97849 | [Function: Mediates the ATP-dependent import of long-chain fatty acids (LCFA) into the cell by mediating their translocation at the plasma membrane. Has also an acyl-CoA ligase activity for long-chain and very-long-chain fatty acids. May act directly as a bona fide transporter, or alternatively, in a cytoplasmic or membrane-associated multimeric protein complex to trap and draw fatty acids towards accumulation. Plays a pivotal role in regulating available LCFA substrates from exogenous sources in tissues undergoing high levels of beta-oxidation or triglyceride synthesis. May be involved in regulation of cholesterol metabolism.] |
| Fatty acid desaturase 6 | Q80UG1 | |
| Acid sphingomyelinase-like phosphodiesterase 3b | P58242 | [Function: Lipid-modulating phosphodiesterase. Active on the surface of macrophages and dendritic cells and strongly influences macrophage lipid composition and membrane fluidity (PubMed:26095358). Acts as a negative regulator of Toll-like receptor signaling (PubMed:26095358, PubMed:27687724). Has in vitro phosphodiesterase activity, but the physiological substrate is unknown (PubMed:26095358, PubMed:27687724).
