Background
CD83 antigen is a single-pass type I membrane protein which contains one Ig-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain. CD83 is expressed by activated lymphocytes, Langerhans cells and interdigitating reticulum cells. It contains one Ig-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain. , the soluble CD83 has the opposite effect and has an immune inhibitory capacity. Due to its immune inhibitory function, CD83 may play a significant role in antigen presentation or the cellular interactions that follow lymphocyte activation.
