products description :
CD25 is the alpha chain of the IL-2 receptor. It is a Type I transmembrane protein present on activated T-cells, activated B-cells, some thymocytes, myeloid precursors, and oligodendrocytes that associates with CD122 to form a heterodimer that can act as a high-affinity receptor for IL-2. It is expressed in most B-cell neoplasms, some Acute Non-lymphocytic Leukemias, and Neuroblastomas. Expression of CD25 is a reliable diagnostic tool for distinguishing neoplastic mast-cell aggregates from reactive proliferations, and has, therefore, recently become a minor criterion for the diagnosis of Systemic Mastocytosis (SM). Anti-CD25 antibodies have also been useful in identifying mast cells in skin biopsies in the setting of Urticaria Pigmentosa, which is predictive of Systemic Mastocytosis. Quantitation of regulatory T-cells (Treg) in the setting of hepatocellular carcinoma has been used as an independent predictive factor for tumor recurrence after hepatic resection for HCC. Also, the percentage of tumor-infiltrating CD25+FOXP3+ regulatory T-cells among tumor cells, inside tumor parenchyma and at its periphery are significantly higher in recurrent Cutaneous Melanoma than in Non-recurrent Melanoma.

uniprot summary :
Function: Might be involved in growth regulation, and in myelinization in the peripheral nervous system. Subcellular location: Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Tissue specificity: Found exclusively in the peripheral nervous system. Present in both myelinating and nonmyelinating Schwann cells. Found in the tumors of Schwann cell lineage where axons are present (neurofibromas) but not where axons are absent (schwannomas). Ref.4. Developmental stage: Levels increase between embryonic day 21 (E21) and postnatal day 0 (PND0) and then gradually increase up to PND15. There is a slight increase between PND15 and adulthood. Ref.4. Induction: Strongly down-regulated in the initial phase after sciatic nerve injury. Sequence similarities: Belongs to the PMP-22/EMP/MP20 family.
