Abstract:
The general structure of the cluster of differentiation of antigens is divided in to 4 groups including transmembrane proteins type I, II, III and glycosylphosphatidyl inositol-anchored proteins (GPI). The cluster of differentiation plays an important role in both physiological and pathological hematology. This paper introduced some applications of cluster of differentiation in hematology and classification of acute leukemia such as myeloid acute leukemia, lymphoid acute leukemia and biphenotypic acute leukemia
