Descriptor antígenos CD8
Entry term(s) antígeno CD8
antígenos Leu-2
antígenos T8 de los linfocitos T
Scope note: Antígenos de diferenciación que se encuentran en los timocitos y en los linfocitos T supresores y citotóxicos. Los antígenos CD8 son miembros de la familia del supergen de la inmunoglobulina y son elementos de reconocimiento asociativo de las interacciones restringidas en el complejo principal de histocompatibilidad (MHC) de clase I.
