Disease relevance of Cd53

 

High impact information on Cd53

  • To study its biological role, we determined which signaling pathways are affected by the CD53 antigen, a prototypic member of this family, in rat macrophages [2].
  • A 50-60-kD glycoprotein coprecipitates with the OX-44 molecule from RNK-16 cells and rat splenic T cells [3].
  • The MRC OX-44 molecule, which is expressed on all peripheral leukocytes, identifies the subset of thymocytes capable of proliferating in response to alloantigens and lectins (Paterson, D.J., J.R. Green, W.A. Jefferies, M. Puklavec, and A.F. Williams. 1987. J. Exp. Med. 165:1) [3].
  • TCR stimulation resulted in rapid downregulation of CD4 and CD8, maintenance of a larger cell size, and induction of the CD53 antigen that marks mature and CD4,8 double-negative rat thymocytes [4].
  • Comparison of NH2-terminal protein sequence from the rat OX-44 antigen with the sequence of the human CD37 antigen deduced from a cDNA clone shows that these antigens are species homologues [5].
 

Biological context of Cd53

 

Anatomical context of Cd53

 

Associations of Cd53 with chemical compounds

  • Ligation of CD53 antigen with a monoclonal antibody triggered the induction of DNA synthesis, which was not sensitive to inhibitors of signaling pathways that use phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and protein kinase C, or to calcium channel inhibitors, such as thapsigargin and verapamil [7].
  • The epitopes of OX-44, 6E2 and 7D2 are restored by the substitution of a single isoleucine residue for threonine at position 154 in the mouse protein [11].
