General description: Thy-1 cell surface antigen (Thy-1)/CD90 (cluster of differentiation 90) is a 25-37kDa glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored glycoprotein. It was first detected in the T cells of mice. Thy-1 is expressed in thymocytes, T cells, neurons, hematopoietic stem cells, cancer stem cells, endothelial cells and fibroblasts. This gene is located on human chromosome 11q23.
Biochem/physiol Actions: Thy-1 cell surface antigen (Thy-1)/CD90 (cluster of differentiation 90) is involved in T-cell activation, neuritis outgrowth modulation, vesicular release of neurotransmitter at the synapse, astrocyte adhesion, apoptosis in carcinoma cells, tumor suppression, wound healing, fibrosis and fibrogenesis. It also controls fibroblast focal adhesion, cytoskeleton organization and cell migration.
