CD43 sialophorin has a wide range of expression that includes t lymphocytes monocytes and granulocytes. CD43 is expressed by many normal activated b lymphocytes but expression is absent from resting B cells. Diagnostically the vlaue of CD43 relates to its variable expression between B lymphocyte neoplasms. usage
- CD43 expression in CLL is 95% including atypical CLL cases while in MCL it is expressed by around 40% of cases.
- this gives it some value in diagnosing cases of atypical CLL
- however CD43 is probably less useful than CD200 for distinguishing CLL and MCL.
- CD43 is rarely expressed in follicular lymphoma.
note also in haematopathology CD43 is often considered as a t-cell associated marker because it is expressed by over 95 of thymocytes and peripheral blood t-cells. loss of CD43 is seen in wiskottu aldrich syndrome. ---- '),
'CD41', ' a reliable and specific marker that can be used to identify megakaryocyte lineage characteristics *CD41 and CD61 respectively represent the alpha or beta chains that together form the iibiiia receptor that allows activated platelets to bind fibrinogen and other adhesion proteins during platelet aggregation.
