CD5 is a cell surface glycoprotein that serves as a marker for some kinds of immune cells, including T lymphocytes and a subset of B lymphocytes known as B-1 cells. Its expression is strictly regulated and plays a critical role in immune function, particularly in the regulation of lymphocyte development, activation, and tolerance. Abnormalities in CD5 expression have been associated with various lymphoproliferative disorders, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), and T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). Therefore, CD5 expression analysis is an essential component of immunophenotyping studies used in the diagnosis and classification of these hematologic malignancies. Additionally, CD5 expression levels may also serve as prognostic markers and therapeutic targets in certain cancers.Read more
