What is this test?
CD11c is a member of the leukocyte specific integrin family, involved in adherence to activated endothelial cells and complement-mediated phagocytosis. CD11c is normally expressed on histiocytes and monocytes, and weakly expressed on granulocytes. CD11c is also expressed on certain B cell neoplasms, including hairy cell leukemia and splenic marginal zone lymphoma. Found on Monocytes and Granulocytes. Associated with Hairy cell leukemia; Marginal zone lymphoma; some other B-cell neoplasms; some AML. CD11c is a type I transmembrane protein found at high levels on most human dendritic cells, but also on monocytes, macrophages, neutrophils, and some B cells that induces cellular activation and helps trigger neutrophil respiratory burst; expressed in hairy cell leukemias, acute nonlymphocytic leukemias, and some B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemias.
Also known as IHC Marker CD 11c Immunohistochemistry Biopsy Tissue, CD 11c Count Immunohistochemistry Biposy Tissue.
