Abstract
Dim expression of CD5 on human B lymphocytes has been used to delineate B1 and B2 subsets. Nevertheless, others have suggested that the molecule is an activation marker and does not predicate a subset distinction. We have used enzymatic amplification staining, a technology that enhances the resolution of flow cytometric analysis of cell surface molecules by as much as 100-fold, to determine that essentially all human B cells express CD5. Furthermore, we show that this expression is regulated during Epstein-Barr virus transformation.
