Intelectin 2, encoded by the ITLN2 gene, is part of the intelectin protein family known for binding carbohydrates and playing roles in innate immunity. Intelectin 2 is characterized by its ability to specifically recognize galactofuranose residues on microbial surfaces, aiding in the immune system's detection and response to pathogenic bacteria and parasites. This protein is expressed predominantly in the small intestine and adipose tissue, where it contributes to mucosal immune defense and metabolic regulation. Intelectin 2 is involved in pathogen recognition, acting as an important component of the body's first line of defense against infections. It also participates in lipid metabolism, influencing glucose homeostasis and adipocyte function, which links it to metabolic disorders such as obesity and diabetes. Research continues to explore intelectin 2's potential as a biomarker for infectious and metabolic diseases, aiming to understand its mechanisms of action and interactions with other immune components.
