Additional info: CD7, also known as gp40, is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily found on T cells, NK cells, thymocytes, hematopoietic progenitors, and monocytes (weakly). CD7 is also expressed on acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). CD7 crosslinking induces a calcium flux in T lymphocytes, presumably as a result of cytoplasmic domain association with PI3-kinase. CD7 co-stimulation can induce cytokine secretion and modulate cellular adhesion. A ligand of CD7, epithelial cell secreted protein K12, is produced in thymus to regulate thymocyte signaling and cytokine release. In lung microvascular endothelial cells CD7 serves as an IgM Fc receptor. Expression of CD7 is an important marker used in leukemia diagnostics.SpecificityThe mouse monoclonal antibody Ki-24 recognizes an extracellular epitope of CD70, an approximately 50 kDa type II transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on activated lymphocytes and some B cell leukemias.Application detailsFlow cytometry: Recommended dilution: 1-4 μg/ml.
