GlossaryCD1a

protein on immune cells presenting lipid antigens to T-cells

CD1a is a protein found on the surface of certain immune cells, such as Langerhans cells, which are involved in the body's defense mechanisms. It plays a crucial role in presenting lipid and glycolipid antigens to T-cells, helping the immune system recognize and respond to pathogens.
