CD45
Use
CD45, also known as leukocyte common antigen, is a glycoprotein that is ubiquitously expressed on the cell surface of nucleated hematopoietic cells, including lymphocytes, monocytes, and eosinophils. It plays a key role in the regulation and activation of the immune system, being essential for proper immune function. It is notably absent from erythrocytes and platelets, making it a critical marker in differentiating cell types in hematopoietic studies.
