Target Information

CD68 (Macrosialin) is a 110 kDa integral membrane glycoprotein predominantly expressed on intracellular lysosomes of monocytes and macrophages, and to a lesser extent by dendritic cells and peripheral blood granulocytes.
It may play a role in phagocytic activities of tissue macrophages, including intracellular lysosomal metabolism and extracellular interactions.
CD68 is expressed by interdigitating reticulum cells in tonsil and some histiocytic lymphoma or histiocytosis, AML, and granulocytic sarcoma. Elevated CD68 expression has been observed on CD34+ cells in various human malignancies, including Acute Myeloid Leukemia studies.
