Background Information
CD117, also known as c-Kit and SCFR, is a transmembrane protein with tyrosine kinase activity encoded by the oncogene c-kit (PMID: 2448137). It is a member of the type III receptor tyrosine kinase family, which also includes CSF-1R, PDGFRβ, PDGFRα, and FLT3 (PMID: 29518044). CD117 is expressed on hematopoietic stem cells and progenitor cells, mast cells, and is also found in a wide range of non-haemopoietic cell types (including melanocytes, germ cells, astrocytes, renal tubules, breast glandular epithelial cells, sweat glands, and interstitial cells of Cajal) (PMID: 10582338; 23073628). CD117 plays an important role in early haemopoiesis. It is also involved in pigmentation, fertility, gut movement, and some aspects of the nervous system (PMID: 23073628).
