Background: TIM-1/KIM-1/HAVCR

T cell-immunoglobulin and mucin domain 1 (TIM-1), also known as KIM1 and HAVcr1, type I transmembrane glycoprotein in the TIM subfamily of immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily molecules. In human, the TIM family is comprised of 3 family members and is involved in the regulation of Th1 and Th2‑cell‑mediated immune responses (1). Mature TIM-1 consists of an extracellular domain (ECD) with one V‑type Ig‑like domain and a mucin domain with O- and N-linked carbohydrates, a transmembrane segment, and a cytoplasmic signaling domain. Within the ECD, human TIM-1 shares 39% amino acid sequence identity with mouse TIM-1. Multiple TIM-1 variants can be produced either through polymorphisms or alternative splicing primarily resulting in deletions in the mucin domain (2). A soluble form of TIM-1, detectable in the urine and in circulation, can be generated through ectodomain cleavage mediated by MMP3 (3, 4). TIM-1 is expressed on splenic B cells, IL-10+ regulatory B cells, CD4+ T cells, mast cells, dendritic cells, kidney epithelium and a broad range of mucosal epithelium (5-7). It is upregulated on activated Th2 cells, after dendritic cell maturation, and on kidney tubular epithelial cells after injury (8-10). TIM-1 ligation induces T cell proliferation and promotes cytokine production (5, 11). TIM-1 serves as a receptor for phosphatidylserine, and its interaction with LMIR5 enables TIM-1 to mediate the phagocytosis of apoptotic cells (12). TIM-1 also serves as a cellular entry receptor for various viruses, including hepatitis A virus, Ebolavirus, Marburgvirus and has been indicated as a possible receptor for SARS-CoV-2 (13-15).
