CD34

Dermatofibrosarcoma stained with CD34 antibody

CD34 recognizes a single chain transmembrane glycoprotein of 110kDa. This antigen is selectively expressed in human lymphoid and myeloid hematopoietic progenitor cells. The antibody to CD34 also reacts with vascular endothelial cells in normal tissues, and in benign and malignant proliferations. The utility of CD34 has value in the studies of benign and malignant vascular tumors as will as characterization of acute leukemia in bone marrow. CD34 has been used to measure angiogenesis in many types of tumors, which reportedly predicts tumor recurrence. It is also used to differentiate dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans from fibrous histiocytoma.
