CD56 (MRQ-42) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody
Specialties: Anatomic Pathology
CD56, also known as neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM), is a calcium-independent homophilic binding protein that belongs to a group of cell adhesion molecules including cadherins, selectins, and integrins.1-3 CD56 is involved in cell–cell adhesion of neural cells during embryogenesis and is expressed on most neuroectodermally derived tissues.1-3 In normal tissue, anti-CD56 labels neurons, glia, schwann cells, NK (natural killer) cells, and a subset of T-cells.3 CD56 expression can be seen in most NK cell neoplasms,4 and is frequently used to identify neoplasms with neuroendocrine differentiation.5,6
