CD45 isoforms show cell-type and differentiation-stage specific expression, a pattern which is quite well conserved in mammals. [7] These isoforms are often used as markers that identify and distinguish between different types of immune cells. Naive T lymphocytes are typically positive for CD45RA, which includes only the A protein region.
Reed–Sternberg cells are CD30 and CD15 positive except in the lymphocyte predominance type where they are negative, but are usually positive for CD20 and CD45. The presence of these cells is necessary in the diagnosis of Hodgkin lymphoma – the absence of Reed–Sternberg cells has very high negative predictive value.
The CD nomenclature was proposed and established in the 1st International Workshop and Conference on Human Leukocyte Differentiation Antigens (HLDA), held in Paris in 1982. [4] [5] This system was intended for the classification of the many monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) generated by different laboratories around the world against epitopes on the surface molecules of leukocytes (white blood cells).
T-cell surface glycoprotein CD1d encoded by the CD1D gene. CD1d-presented lipid antigens activate a special class of T cells, known as natural killer T cells, through the interaction with the T-cell receptor present on NKT membranes CD1e: T-cell surface glycoprotein CD1e is a protein in humans encoded by the CD1E gene. CD2
Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type C-associated protein is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PTPRCAP gene. [5]The protein encoded by this gene was identified as a transmembrane phosphoprotein specifically associated with tyrosine phosphatase PTPRC/CD45, a key regulator of T- and B-lymphocyte activation.
Tiger Woods’ mother, Kultida Woods, has died, the golfer announced on Tuesday.She was 81. “It is with heartfelt sadness that I want to share that my dear mother, Kultida Woods, passed away ...
Protected from the wind and the sea inside a secluded sandstone-sheltered cove, this little Ligurian fishing village is every bit as charming as it appears from its postcard-perfect shoreline.
CD34 is expressed in hematopoietic progenitor cells and endothelial cells of blood vessels. Thus, it has been used as a marker for capillaries and blood vessels. One of the most densely vascular organs is the kidney, wherein networks of capillaries are intertwined with renal tubules.
