CDAntigens

Abstract: CD (clusters of differentiation) antigens are molecules originally defined as being present on the cell surface of leucocytes and recognised by specific antibody molecules, but now including some intracellular molecules and molecules present on cells other than leucocytes. Such molecules are assigned a CD number following a consensus reached at regularly held international workshops. CD antigens include a large number of cell surface receptors, signalling molecules and adhesion molecules. Their identification … Show more

“…The surface of a cell is covered with various kinds of antigens [1]. These antigens are important molecular markers for the identification of different cell types and specific targets for the treatment of different diseases [2,3,4,5,6]. Red blood cells, for example, are classified as A, B, and O groups according to inherited differences in cell surface antigens composed of carbohydrates [4].…”

“…Red blood cells, for example, are classified as A, B, and O groups according to inherited differences in cell surface antigens composed of carbohydrates [4]. Human leukocyte antigens (or CD antigens), on the other hand, are proteins, and they play a central role in immune response [5]. The significance of these membrane-bound molecules has stimulated the development of an immunoenzymatic technique known as cell-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (cell-ELISA) to achieve quantitative analysis of cell surface antigens [7,8,9].…”
