  • STRUCTURE


    CD18 is a β chain of the integrin family. It is a transmembrane glycoprotein with a large extracellular portion and a small cytoplasmic tail. The extracellular part contains a conserved region rich in cysteines divided into 4 tandem repeats. In addition, as other β chain integrins, CD18 contains in the extracellular region a plexin-semaphorin-integrin domain, an I-like domain and four I-EGF folds followed by a β-tail domain. 1-3 Apart from the membrane- bound form, CD18 can also be found in a soluble form.4

With CD11c, it is expressed on monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells and NK cells. With CD11b, it is expressed on monocytes, macrophages, NK cells, neutrophils and γδ T cells. Last, with CD11a, it is present in all leukocytes.1-2

  • GENE_NAME : CD18

    CD_NAME : CD18

    As part of an integrin, CD18 is involved in adhesion processes, although the precise role depends on the alpha-subunit that is bound to CD18. When combined with CD11a, it participates in the slow-rolling of leukocytes, arrest, diapedesis and lateral migration for their extravasation. 1-5 Another role is to mediate the formation of the immune synapse.6 When combined with CD11b, it is involved in phagocytosis, adhesion, remodeling of the extracellular matrix, cell survival and immune tolerance.7-13 When combined with CD11c, it plays a role in adhesion, phagocytosis and migration of leukocytes. 13-14 Last, when bound to CD11d, it regulates cell spreading and inflammatory signalling.15

    Cell marker

    Truncated CD18 is a useful marker for activated myeloid cells.1

    The lack of CD18 expression can be used in the diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia. 2 In B cell lymphomas, its expression is associated with survival.3

    Therapeutic

    Antibodies against CD18 have largely been studied in the context of ischemia, multiple sclerosis and heart attack. Preclinical studies in those areas displayed promising results. However, when introduced to clinical studies, anti-CD18 antibodies failed completely to achieve the goals of the studies.1-4
