Chronic inflammatory diseases like multiple sclerosis and cancer can be rectified via interventions of T cell checkpoint pathway. Tim3 is a T cell checkpoint molecule that is gaining extreme interest in these diseases. Here, we aim to identify molecular mechanism(s) to suppress or enhance Tim3 signalling in effector T cell, potentially leading to the development of therapeutic intervention to treat autoimmune disorders and cancers.

慢性炎症性疾病如多发性硬化症和癌症可以通过T细胞检查点途径的干预来纠正。Tim3是一种T细胞检查点分子，在这些疾病中引起了极大的兴趣。在这里，我们的目标是确定抑制或增强效应T细胞中Tim3信号传导的分子机制，可能导致治疗自身免疫性疾病和癌症的治疗干预的发展。
