Sialic Acid Binding Immunoglobulin-Like Lectin-3 (CD33)

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Genetic Variants in Alzheimer's Disease

Abstract

CD33 (siglec-3) is a member of the family of immunoglobulin containing siglecs. Expressed in myeloid cells, CD33 contains an inhibitory motif which responds to the extracellular “sialoglycome” to dampen immune responses. Genetic variants within anti-inflammatory signalling proteins may contribute to the hyper-inflammatory state associated with Alzheimer’s disease brain. However, the genetic evidence implicating CD33 in Alzheimer’s disease requires independent replication before translational research can be embarked on.
