CD26 is a proteolytic enzyme (dipeptidylpeptidase IV) with a wide tissue distribution and a unique specificity. Recent developments indicate that CD26 is a multifunctional molecule that may have important functions in the immune system. Here, Bernhard Fleischer reviews the current knowledge of CD26 and discusses the possible functions of this molecule in T lymphocytes.
CD26是一种蛋白水解酶(二肽基肽酶IV),具有广泛的组织分布和独特的特异性。最近的研究进展表明,CD26是一种多功能分子,可能在免疫系统中具有重要功能。在此,伯恩哈德·弗莱舍尔综述了关于CD26的现有知识,并讨论了该分子在T淋巴细胞中的可能功能。
