CD19 is a 95kD glycoprotein, expressed by all human B lymphocytes. It is expressed on precursor B cells prior to the expression of cytoplasmic m chain. CD19 expression is lost during differentiation to plasma cells.
CD5 is a 67kD glycoprotein expressed by all mature T cells and by a subset of mature B cells. CD5 has been shown to act as a ligand for the B cell marker CD72. CD5 positive B cells have been implicated in the pathogenesis of various autoimmune disorders and are the normal counterpart of the malignant cells in B cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia.
This combination of antibodies is useful for simultaneously enumerating CD5 and CD19 positive cells. It may find particular application in the study of CD5 positive B lymphocytes and in the study of chronic lymphoproliferative diseases.
