| antigens, CD | <immunology> Differentiation antigens residing on human leukocytes. CD stands for cluster of differentiation, which refers to groups of monoclonal antibodies that show similiar reactivity with certain subpopulations of antigens. The subpopulations of antigens are also known by the same CD designation. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| antigens, CD1 | <immunology> Glycoproteins expressed on cortical thymocytes and on some dendritic cells and B-cells. Their structure is similar to that of MHC class I and their function has been postulated as similar also. Cd1 antigens are highly specific markers for human langerhans cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, CD11 | <immunology> A group of three different alpha chains (CD11a, CD11b, CD11c) that are associated with an invariant CD18 beta chain (antigens, CD18). The three resulting leukocyte-adhesion molecules (receptors, leukocyte adhesion) are lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1, macrophage-1 antigen, and antigen, p150,95. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, CD13 | <enzyme, immunology> Glycoproteins expressed on human granulocyte-monocyte progenitor colony forming units (cfu-gm) and their more differentiated progeny. The enzymes are also found in a large number of tissues, often associated with membranes. Registry number: EC 3.4.11.2 (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, CD14 | <immunology> Glycolipid-anchored membrane glycoproteins expressed on cells of the myelomonocyte lineage including monocytes, macrophages, and some granulocytes. They function as receptors for the complex of lipopolysaccharide (lps) and lps-binding protein. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, CD15 | <immunology> Carbohydrate antigen which is accumulated in various human cancer tissues and secreted into the blood stream. The carbohydrate moiety can be further modified with fucose or sialic acid. Monoclonal antibodies have been determined which can discriminate each subgroup of this antigen in the sera of cancer patients. Sialyl ssea-1 antigen is particularly elevated in the sera of patients with a variety of tumours. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, CD18 | <immunology> Cell-surface glycoprotein beta-chains that are non-covalently linked to specific alpha-chains of the CD11 family of leukocyte-adhesion molecules (receptors, leukocyte-adhesion). A defect in the gene encoding CD18 causes leukocyte-adhesion deficiency syndrome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, CD19 | <immunology> Differentiation antigens expressed on B-lymphocytes and B-cell precursors. They are involved in regulation of B-cell proliferation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, CD2 | <immunology> Glycoprotein members of the immunoglobulin superfamily which participate in T-cell adhesion and activation. They are expressed on most peripheral T-lymphocytes, natural killer cells, and thymocytes, and function as co-receptors or accessory molecules in the T-cell receptor complex. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, CD20 | <immunology> Unglycosylated phosphoproteins expressed only on B-cells. They are regulators of transmembrane calcium conductance and thought to play a role in B-cell activation and proliferation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, CD26 | <enzyme, immunology> Cell-surface glycoproteins and serine protease, also known as dipeptidyl-peptidase IV, that play a role in t-lymphocyte activation. Cd26 binds to adenosine deaminase on the T-cell surface. Registry number: EC 3.4.14.5 (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, CD27 | <immunology> Dimeric membrane glycoproteins found on most T-lymphocytes. Activation of T-cells by the antigen receptor increases CD27 surface expression. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, CD28 | <immunology> T-cell differentiation antigens that serve as the receptors for the b7 antigen (antigens, CD80) which modulates T-cell lymphokine production. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, CD29 | <immunology> Integrin beta-1 chains which are expresssed as heterodimers noncovalently associated with specific alpha-chains of the CD49 family (CD49a-f). Cd29 is expressed on resting and activated leukocytes and is a marker for total very late activation antigens on cells. (barclay et al., the leukocyte antigen factsbook, 1993, p164) (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, CD3 | <immunology> A complex of at least five membrane-bound polypeptides in mature T-lymphocytes that are non-covalently associated with one another and with the T-cell receptor (receptors, antigen, T-cell). The CD3 complex includes the gamma, delta, epsilon, zeta, and eta chains (subunits). When antigen binds to the T-cell receptor, the CD3 complex transduces the activating signals to the cytoplasm of the T-cell. The CD3 gamma and delta chains (subunits) are separate from and not related to the gamma/delta chains of the T-cell receptor (receptors, antigen, T-cell, gamma-delta). (12 Dec 1998) |
| receptors, very late antigen | Members of the integrin family appearing late after T-cell activation. They are a family of proteins initially identified at the surface of stimulated T-cells, but now identified on a variety of cell types. At least six vla antigens have been identified as heterodimeric adhesion receptors consisting of a single common beta-subunit and different alpha-subunits. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| Gerbich antigen | glycophorin C |
| Vi antigen | Virulence antigen, an external capsular antigen of enterobacteria formerly thought to be related to increased virulence. (05 Mar 2000) |
| partial antigen | <immunology, molecular biology> Could be considered an isolated epitope: although a hapten (by definition) has an antibody directed against it, the hapten alone will not induce an immune response if injected into an animal, it must be conjugated to a carrier (usually a protein). The hapten constitutes a single antigenic determinant, perhaps the best known example is dinitro phenol (DNP) that can be conjugated to BSA and against which antiDNP antibodies are produced (antibodies to the BSA can be adsorbed out). Because the hapten is monovalent, immune complex formation will be blocked if the soluble hapten is present as well as the hapten carrier conjugate (assuming there is more than one hapten per carrier then an immune precipitate can be formed). Competitive inhibition by the soluble small molecule is sometimes referred to as haptenic inhibition and this term has carried over into lectin mediated haemagglutination where monosaccharides are added to try to block haemagglutination: the blocking sugar defines the specificity of the lectin. (18 Nov 1997) |
| viral antigen | Those antigens specified by the viral genome (often coat proteins) that can be detected by a specific immunological response. Often of diagnostic importance. (18 Nov 1997) |
| C carbohydrate antigen | An antigen found in the cell wall of Streptococcus pneumoniae. See: beta-haemolytic streptococci. (05 Mar 2000) |
| CD antigen | <immunology> Differentiation antigens residing on human leukocytes. CD stands for cluster of differentiation, which refers to groups of monoclonal antibodies that show similiar reactivity with certain subpopulations of antigens. The subpopulations of antigens are also known by the same CD designation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Rhus toxicodendron antigen | An extract of fresh leaves of poison ivy, with 0.4% of procaine hydrochloride; used by intradermal injection to determine sensitiveness to the poison of Rhus toxicodendron. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Rhus venenata antigen | An extract of fresh leaves of poison sumac; used to determine sensitiveness to the plant or to relieve the dermatitis caused by contact with its leaves. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cholesterinised antigen | Cardiolipin to which cholesterol has been added. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rotavirus antigen test | <investigation, microbiology> A test which detects the presence of rotavirus in the stool. This virus is a common cause of childhood gastroenteritis. (17 Dec 1997) |
| Mitsuda antigen | An autoclaved suspension of human tissue naturally infected with Mycobacterium leprae; used to produce the Mitsuda reaction in a lepromin test. (05 Mar 2000) |
| common antigen | Cross reacting antigen (epitope), a common antigen that occurs in 2 or more different molecules/organisms. Synonym: heterogenic enterobacterial antigen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| complete antigen | Any antigen capable of stimulating the formation of antibody with which it reacts in vivo or in vitro, as distinguished from incomplete antigen (hapten). (05 Mar 2000) |
| conjugated antigen | A hapten that may cause the production of antibodies when it has been covalently linked to protein. Synonym: conjugated antigen. (05 Mar 2000) |
