Prognostic value of CD markers’ expression of different blood cells in JAK2V617F positive MPNs.

Markers Alternative name Chro. Function Type of diseases Prognosis Ref.
Decreased expression Increased expression
RBC surface CD markers
CD71 TFR 3q29 Necessary for TF absorption and required for erythropoiesis - PV May be associated with poor prognosis because increases of these markers implicates increases erythroid lineage proliferation 30
CD235a GYPA 4q31.21 A sialoglycoprotein that bears the antigenic determinants of the MN and Ss blood groups
CD239 BCAM 19q13.32 A glycoprotein for lutheran blood group and a receptor for extracellular laminin - PV Associated with poor prognosis via adhesion augmentation of RBCs to the endothelial cells 31
Megakaryocyte and platelet surface CD markers
CD36 GPIV 7q21.11 It works as a receptor for thrombospondin in platelets - ET May be associated with thrombotic complications via increased platelets adhesion 58
CD110 TPO-R 1p34.2 Thrombopoietin receptor in megakaryocytes and platelets PV, ET, PMF - Maybe indicates increased thrombopoiesis and subsequently increased risk of thrombotic complications 35, 37
CD63 CD63 molecule 12q13.2 A cell-surface protein that mediates signal transduction events and may function as a platelet activation marker - PV, ET Associated with poor prognosis via participating in arterial thrombosis and erythromelalgia 40, 52, 59
CD62P P-selectin 1q24.2 This protein mediates the interaction of activated platelets with leukocytes - PV, ET, PMF Associated with thrombosis and erythromelalgia via mediating leuko-platelets adhesion 17, 60, 62, 63
CD41 ITGA2B 17q21.31 This receptor plays a crucial role in the platelet aggregation ET - May be associated with bleeding complications 57, 59
CD42a GPIX 3q21.3 A platelet surface membrane glycoprotein complex that functions as a receptor for VWF ET, PV - Associated with poor prognosis with low platelet aggregation response to ristocetin 59
CD42b GPIb 17p13.2 Functions as a receptor for VWF ET, PV - Associated with poor prognosis via low platelet aggregation response to epinephrine 57, 59, 62
CD61 ITGB3 17q21.32 Participates in cell adhesion as well as platelet aggregation via binding to fibrinogen ET, PV - May be associated with bleeding complications 51, 55
CD154 CD40L Xq26.3 CD40 Ligand - ET Associated with increased thrombosis via inducing TF expression by endothelial cells 53
Leukocytes surface CD markers
CD11b MAC-1 16p11.2 Mediates adherence of neutrophils and monocytes to stimulated endothelium and platelet surface molecules - PV, ET, PMF Poor prognosis via mediate leuko-platelet aggregation and increases of leuko-endothelial cells adhesion 60, 61
CD14 CD14 molecule 5q31.3 Expressed on monocytes/macrophages and mediates the innate immune response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide - PV, ET, PMF Poor prognosis via interfere leuko-platelet aggregation and increases leukocytes adhesion to the endothelial cells 60-62
CD56 NCAM-1 11q23.2 Involved in cell-to-cell interactions as well as cell-matrix interactions during development and differentiation - PMF Maybe associated with poor prognosis via enhancement of cell adhesion 70
Endothelial cells surface CD markers
CD34 CD34 molecule 1q32.2 Hematopoietic stem cell antigen - PV, ET, PMF Associated with increased MVD in BM 78, 79
CD105 S- endoglin 9q34.11 It works as transforming growth factor beta receptor - PMF, PV Associated with augmentation of angiogenesis and fibrosis in BM 18
CD106 VCAM1 1p21.2 A cell surface sialoglycoprotein in activated endothelium cells that mediates leuko-endothelial cells adhesion - PV, ET Associated with platelet activation and leuko-endothelial cells adhesion that leads to arterial thrombosis and erythromelalgia 52
CD62E E- selectin 1q34.2 Responsible for the accumulation of blood leukocytes and mediating the leuko-endothelial cells adhesion - ET May be associated with increased leuko-endothelial cells adhesion 74, 82
CD141 Thrombomodulin 20p11.21 This protein binds to thrombin that results in the activation of protein C - PV, ET May act as a poor prognostic factor for thrombosis 83
CD142 TF 1p21.3 This factor enables cells to initiate the blood coagulation - PV, ET Associated with increases adhesion of platelets to the endothelial cells and subsequent thrombotic events 74
CD54 ICAM 19p13.2 This glycoprotein binds to some leukocytes integrins including CD11b and CD11a - PV, ET Can be associated with leuko – endothelial cells adhesion 74
CD9 MPR-1 12p13.31 Function in many cellular processes including differentiation, adhesion, and signal - PMF Associated with increases BM myelofibrosis and mobilization of CD34+ cells into PB 80
