Background
Cluster of Differentiation 28 (CD28, also known as Tp44) is one of the proteins constitutively expressed on the surface of 80% of human T cells. CD28 is a highly glycosylated membrane protein, formed by two homodimer disulfide-linked peptides, which shares homology with the immunoglobulin superfamily. CD28 signals play a key role in many T cell processes including cytoskeletal remodeling, production of cytokines, survival, and differentiation. CD28 interactions with the B7 family of costimulatory ligands are essential for initiating antigen-specific T cell responses, upregulating cytokine expression and promoting T cell expansion and differentiation.
