Summary: Enables CD40 receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of B cell proliferation; positive regulation of dendritic cell differentiation; and positive regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process. Located in several cellular components, including cell body; cell surface; and extracellular space. Used to study Ehrlich tumor carcinoma; artery disease (multiple); autoimmune disease (multiple); thrombosis; and vitamin B12 deficiency. Biomarker of atherosclerosis; coronary artery disease; perinatal necrotizing enterocolitis; periodontal disease; and pulmonary hypertension. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Kawasaki disease; autoimmune disease (multiple); combined T cell and B cell immunodeficiency (multiple); hematologic cancer (multiple); and lupus nephritis. Orthologous to human CD40LG (CD40 ligand). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

Transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rats yielded an acceleration of thrombus formation that was accompanied by increased CD40 levels in serum. The brain infarction was significantly decreased in CD40 antagonist treatment group compared to MCAO model group. The mTOR/S6K signaling was activated in MACO model than that of CD40 antagonist treatment group.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
