Background Information
CD7, also known as Leu-9 or GP40, is a 40-kDa single-pass type I transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily. CD7 is expressed on thymocytes, T cells, NK cells, and cells in the early stages of T, B, and myeloid cell differentiation (PMID: 10530432). It is one of the earliest antigens to appear on cells of the T-lymphocyte lineage (PMID: 3501369). CD7 plays a significant role in T-cell and T-cell/B-cell interactions during early lymphoid development. It is involved in the regulation of cell signaling and biology, including T-cell activation, proliferation, and the expression of interleukin-2 receptor alpha (IL-2Rα) (PMID: 11485208). CD7 is not only a marker for T-cells but also has functional implications in immune cell interactions and adhesion. It can provide co-stimulatory signals and is associated with CD3 and CD45, participating in T-cell activation (PMID: 7523512).
