Description

This antibody is highly specific and optimized for use in Immunohistochemistry.

It has been validated on TMAs covering 76 normal tissues and numerous cancer tissues.

Positive Control
Postive control:Tonsil: A strong CD5 staining of virtually all T-cells in both T-zones and in germinal centres as well as an at least weak to moderate staining of dispersed B-cells in the mantle zone should be seen.

Negative Control
Negitve control:Tonsil: CD5 staining should be absent in germinal centre B-cells and in surface epithelial cells (A fraction of crypt epithelial cells may stain positive).

Background: CD5

In humans, CD5 is a 55kDa T lymphocyte single chain transmembrane glycoprotein. It is present on all mature T lymphocytes, on most thymocytes and on many T cell leukemias and lymphomas. It reacts with a subpopulation of activated B cells. CD5/Lyt1 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. It has been identified as the major ligand of the B cell antigen CD72. 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 B1 cells. Binding of CD5 on the T cell surface can augment alloantigen or mitogen induced lymphocyte proliferation and induces increased cytosolic free calcium, IL2 secretion, and IL2R expression. It has been proposed that CD5 negatively regulates signal transduction mediated by the T cell and B cell receptors.
