Extra Details:
CD5/Lyt-1 antigen is a monomeric type I transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on thymocytes, T lymphocytes, and a subset of B lymphocytes, but not on natural killer (NK) cells.1-3 It has been identified as the major ligand of the B-cell antigen CD72.4, 5 The frequency of CD5+ B cells exhibits strain-dependent variation, and the phenotypic, anatomical, functional, developmental, and pathological characteristics of the CD5+ B cells suggest that they may represent a distinct lineage, known as B-1 cells . Binding of CD5 on the T cell surface can augment alloantigen- or mitogen-induced lymphocyte proliferation and induces increased cytosolic free calcium, IL-2 secretion, and IL-2R expression.7-12 It has been proposed that CD5 negatively regulates signal transduction mediated by the T-cell and B-cell receptors. Applications: Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilution to be determined by researcher.
