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
