Background Information
CD63 is a 30-60 kDa lysosomal membrane protein that belongs to the tetraspanin family. This protein plays many important roles in immuno-physiological functions. It mediate signal transduction events that play a role in the regulation of cell development, activation, growth and motility. CD63 is expressed on activated platelets, thus it may function as a blood platelet activation marker. CD63 is a lysosomal membrane glycoprotein that is translocated to plasma membrane after platelet activation. The CD63 tetraspanin is highly expressed in the early stages of melanoma and decreases in advanced lesions, suggesting it as a possible suppressor of tumor progression. Deficiency of this protein is associated with Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome.
