Table 1. Proposed phenotypic LSC markers.
A compilation of proposed phenotypic LSC-specific markers in AML, their alternate name(s), known biological function(s), and some of the cell type(s) they are known to be positive on.
Alternate name(s) | Function(s) | Cell Type(s) | |
---|---|---|---|
CD25 | IL-2Rα | T cell proliferation, inflammatory responses | T cells, B cells |
CD26 | Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) | Immune regulation, T cell activation, apoptosis, and glucose metabolism | T cells, B cells, NK cells, macrophages |
CD33 | Sialic acid binding Ig-like lectin 3 (Siglec-3) | Sialic acid dependent binding, apoptosis in AML | Myeloid cells, few lymphoid cells |
CD47 | Integrin associated protein (IAP) | Apoptosis, proliferation, adhesion, migration, and immune recognition; phagocytosis block | T cells, B cells, NK cells, macrophages, progenitor cells, and many others |
CD96 | T cell activation, increased late expression (Tactile) | Immune adhesion, antigen presentation | T cells, NK cells, some B cells |
CD123 | IL-3R | Proliferation and differentiation during hematopoiesis | Hematopoietic progenitor cells |
CLL-1 | C-type lectin-like molecule 1, C-type lectin domain family 12 member A (CLEC12A) | Cell adhesion, cell-cell signaling, inflammation, and immune responses | Monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, granulocytes |
TIM3 | T cell immunoglobulin mucin-3 | Autoimmunity and allergy | Th1 cells |
