Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nSiglec‐9 is a sialic acid–binding immunoglobulin‐like lectin that plays a central role in regulating innate and adaptive immune responses. On natural killer cells, its expression marks a mature, cytotoxic subset with enhanced chemotactic properties, while in T cells its engagement interferes with T‑cell receptor signaling. In neutrophils, Siglec‑9 engagement can trigger both apoptotic and nonapoptotic cell death and dampen oxidative responses, for example, upon interactions with sialylated bacterial capsular polysaccharides or endothelial ligands, thereby modulating inflammation and host defense. In myeloid cells and dendritic cells, its ligation shifts cytokine profiles (reducing tumor necrosis factor–α while enhancing interleukin‑10) and influences the tumor microenvironment by interacting with aberrantly glycosylated mucins. These studies collectively illustrate Siglec‑9’s function as an inhibitory checkpoint on NK cells, T cells, neutrophils, and antigen‐presenting cells in cancer and infection settings."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_fs", "start_ref": "1", "end_ref": "15"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nBeyond its cell surface inhibitory activity, structural and evolutionary studies have revealed that human Siglec‑9 has adapted a unique sialic acid recognition profile compared with its primate counterparts, reflecting its ability to bind Neu5Ac‐based self‐ligands. Detailed analyses of its extracellular domains demonstrate that the amino‐terminal V domain mediates sialic acid binding, while a distinct, adjacent domain modulates interactions with partners such as vascular adhesion protein‑1, thereby influencing enzymatic activity and cell trafficking. In addition, soluble forms of Siglec‑9 and natural autoantibodies targeting it have emerged as potential immunomodulatory tools, and innovative strategies utilizing Siglec‑9–based chimeric antigen receptors in engineered T cells are being explored to target hypersialylated tumor antigens. These insights underscore its translational relevance in cancer immunotherapy, autoimmune disorders, and chronic inflammatory diseases."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_fs", "start_ref": "16", "end_ref": "27"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nEmerging evidence also implicates Siglec‑9 in the pathogenesis of chronic diseases. Altered expression levels and polymorphisms of Siglec‑9—both at the cell surface and in soluble form—correlate with disease severity in conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, glioblastoma, and rheumatoid arthritis. In these contexts, modulation of Siglec‑9 signaling appears to contribute to either immunosuppressive environments that favor tumor progression or, conversely, to excessive inflammatory responses.
