Activity summary

CD7 also known as Leu-9 or GP40 is a cell surface protein with a mass of approximately 40 kDa. The target is mainly expressed on T cells and NK cells and can be found during early T-cell development. Researchers also report CD7 expression in some B cell lineage progenitors. The CD7 function involves mediating cell signal transduction which contributes to the activation and differentiation of immune cells making it an important target in immunology studies.

Biological function summary

CD7 plays a role in modulating interactions between immune cells without being part of a larger complex. It bridges interactions promoting immune responses by influencing T cell proliferation and cytokine production. CD7 control is important in regulating immune response intensity and provides an essential checkpoint in immune system modulation. Variations in CD7 function can significantly influence immune cell behavior impacting host defense mechanisms.

Pathways

CD7 participates in immune signaling pathways such as the T-cell receptor (TCR) signaling pathway. This pathway is essential for T cell activation and involves proteins like CD3 and ZAP-70 which work together with CD7 to transduce activation signals. Alterations in the CD7 pathway can affect the downstream signaling events leading to changes in immune cell activation and function.

Associated diseases and disorders

Aberrations in CD7 expression or function link to conditions like T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and certain autoimmune diseases. In T-ALL abnormal CD7 expression serves as an indicator for diagnosis and disease progression monitoring. CD7 also interacts with proteins such as CD45 and CD3 which play roles in leukemogenesis and immune system dysregulation. Studies also explore anti-CD7 strategies for therapeutic interventions aiming to modulate its activity for treating these conditions effectively.

    Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Alexa Fluor® 555 Anti-CD7 antibody [EPR4242] (ab279334)

    Immunofluorescence staining of CD7 staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded human normal tonsil*.

    Performed on a Leica BOND. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with EDTA (pH9.0) using retrieval settings of 110°C for 20 minutes. The section was then incubated at room temperature for 1 hour with ab279334 at 1/50 dilution (shown in red) and counterstained using Alexa Fluor® 488 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker ab195887, Ms anti-Tubulin (A488) (1/250) at 1/250 dilution (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). The section was then mounted using Dako Fluorescence Mounting Medium ®.

    Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

    For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated), customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, antibody concentrations and incubation times.
