Distribution and quantitative expression of the complement receptor type 1 (CR1) on human peripheral blood T lymphocytes
DD Yaskanin, LF Thompson, FJ Waxman - Cellular immunology, 1992 - Elsevier
The complement receptor, type 1 (CR1) is expressed on a variety of cell types including
primate erythrocytes, phagocytic cells, and B lymphocytes. On these cells, CR1 plays a role
in a diverse spectrum of biological activities including the clearance of immune complexes
from the circulation, down-regulation of the complement system, recognition of complement-
coated microorganisms, and cellular activation. CR1 is also expressed by some, but not all,
T lymphocytes. The present study was undertaken in order to examine the distribution of …
