BackgroundThe CD103 antigen is a 160-130-105 kDa molecule which is expressed on mucosa-associated T lymphocytes and activated cellsand on subset of TGF beta -1 cells. This human intra epithelial lymphocyte marker is theE integrin chain associated with the b7 subunit. CD103 antibody stains a few bone marrow cells and, rarely,peripheral blood lymphocytes.CD103 is expressed by 0.5 to 2 % of resting lymphocytes in Peripheral blood and lymphoid organs.

Synonyms: CD103 FITC
