Description

CD5 is a surface glycoprotein present on peripheral T cells (>95%) and B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia cells that binds CD72. CD5 has utility for the monitoring of T-cell numbers in peripheral blood and the identification of leukaemias of T cell origin. Absence of the CD5 marker on childhood ALL cells is associated with a more favourable prognosis.
