Specificity | This Monoclonal Antibody reacts with an extracellular domain (close to transmembrane) of CD56/NCAM. Three isoforms of neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) are produced by differential splicing of the RNA transcript from a single gene. The 135kDa isoform is the basic molecule, which is glycosylated or sialylated to produce the mature species. Anti-CD56 recognizes two proteins of the neural cell adhesion molecule, the basic molecule expressed on most neuroectodermally derived tissues and neoplasms (e.g. retinoblastoma, medulloblastomas, astrocytomas, neuroblastomas, and small cell carcinomas). It is also expressed on some mesodermally derived tumors (rhabdomyosarcoma). Anti-CD56 plays an important role in the diagnosis of nodal and nasal NK/T-cell lymphomas. Cellular Localization: Cell Surface. |

Background | The CD56 molecule is a cell surface glycoprotein which is expressed on neuroendocrine cells, natural killer cells and a subset of T cells in the peripheral blood. Three main isoforms of CD56 exist. Neurons express the largest 180kD form, while haemopoietic cells express the 140kD isoform. In neuronal tissues, CD56 mediates homophilic and heterophilic adhesion and is implicated in neural development. Studies suggest that CD56 is also expressed on thyroid follicular epithelium and may play a role in autoimmune disease of the thyroid. CD56 is expressed in a range of tumours including tumours of the lung, neural derived malignancies and natural killer cell lymphomas. |
