CD20
CD20 is a B cell differentiation antigen expressed in B cell development from early pre-B cell stage to mature B cell stage but lost on differentiation into plasma cells. Its role is in regulating B- cell activation, proliferation and differentiation. Aberrant CD20 expression has been described in mainly B cell tumor types such as Burkitt lymphoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). (Download Biomarker Datasheet)
CD206
CD206 is a C-type lectin that can be found on certain populations of macrophages and dendritic cells. Also known as mannose receptor C type 1 (MRC1), it is normally expressed on M2 macrophages. CD206 is thought to play a role in innate and adaptive immunity by acting as a pattern recognition receptor for various pathogens. (Biomarker Datasheet coming soon)
CD3
CD3 is a multimeric protein composed of 4 subunits (γ, δ, ε, ζ), which are part of the T-cell receptor (TCR). Engagement of CD3 induces downstream signaling events that result in T-cell activation. The specificity of the CD3 antigen for T cells and its appearance at all stages of T cell development makes it an ideal T cell marker for both the detection of normal T cells and T cell neoplasms. (Download Biomarker Datasheet)
CD4
CD4 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and is part of the TCR/CD3 complex, binding to MHC class II molecules and participating in signal transduction through recruitment of tyrosine kinase Lck. CD4 expression is used to identify helper T cells of which there are many different subsets including Th1, Th2, Th9, Th17, regulatory T cell, and follicular helper T cell. Each of these contributes to immune function through their unique cytokine profile. (Download Biomarker Datasheet)
CD45RO
CD45RO is expressed on activated and memory T cells, some B cell subsets, activated monocytes/macrophages, and granulocytes. Lack of CD45RO on T cells indicates naive T cell subsets while CD45RO expression indicated previous antigen exposure and defines the memory T cell subset. High density of CD45RO+ T cells in solid tumors is associated with a better prognosis. (Download Biomarker Datasheet)
CD56
CD56, also known as neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) is a transmembrane glycoprotein often considered a marker of neural lineage commitment due to its discovery site. CD56 expression is most strongly associated with natural killer (NK) cells but it has also been detected on other lymphoid cells, including gamma delta (γδ), T cells and activated CD8+ T cells, as well as dendritic cells. (Download Biomarker Datasheet)
CD68
CD68 is expressed on human macrophages and other mononuclear phagocytes. CD68 is a heavily glycosylated glycoprotein that is involved in ligand binding and is a member of the scavenger receptor family. CD68 functions in phagocytic activities and macrophage homing. An increased CD68+ macrophage index is associated with metastasis, shorter disease-free interval, poor prognosis, and reduced overall survival in multiple types of cancer. (Download Biomarker Datasheet)
CD8
CD8 is primarily expressed on cytotoxic T cells, but it can also be expressed on cortical thymocytes, dendritic cells and NK cells. CD8 is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is a co-receptor for the T cell receptor (TCR). CD8 binds MHC Class I to aid in antigen recognition and TCR-mediated activation. CD8 forms dimers of CD8ɑ and CD8β and clone C8/144B recognizes the alpha form of CD8. (Download Biomarker Datasheet)
CK
Cytokeratins play a cytoskeletal role in epithelial tissue and are an important component of intermediate filaments. These provide a structural framework for the cell and help resist mechanical stress. The mixture of AE1 and AE3 clones are able to detect a mixture of low and high molecular weight cytokeratins, thus identifying a broad range of cytokeratins. This marker can be used to identify the epithelial nature of tissue and tumors. (Download Biomarker Datasheet)
FoxP3
FoxP3, or Forkhead Box P3 is a transcription factor important in the development and inhibitory function of regulatory T cells (Tregs). FoxP3 functions by inhibiting cytokine production and T cell effector function, thus playing a crucial role in maintenance of immunological tolerance and control of immune responses against tumors and pathogens. (Download Biomarker Datasheet)
GrzB
Granzyme B (GrzB) is a serine protease stored in secretory granules of Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and Natural killer (NK) cells. Activated cytotoxic cells release granzyme B which enters the target cells where it can interact with cellular substrates to initiate cell death. (Download Biomarker Datasheet)
HLA-DR
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) complex encodes the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). HLA-DR is the main isotype of 3 isotype (-DR, -DP, -DQ) responsible for presentation of antigens to T cells and B cells. Often, HLA-DR is used as a marker indicating the presence of antigen-presenting cells. HLA-DR expression in tumors has been shown to be positively associated with patient prognosis in some cancers such as colorectal cancer but is negatively associated with prognosis in other cancer types, such as glioma.
