GlossaryCluster of Differentiation (CD)

system for identifying cell surface molecules, especially on white blood cells

Cluster of Differentiation (CD) refers to a system used to identify and classify surface molecules on cells, particularly white blood cells, which are critical for the immune system. These molecules serve as markers that help differentiate between various cell types and their functions, and are often used in medical diagnostics and research to understand immune responses and diseases.
