This antibody recognizes a protein of 150kDa, identified as CD103, which is the alpha-E integrin subunit of the heterodimeric alpha-E-beta-7 integrin belonging to a small beta-7 integrin subfamily. CD103 is expressed on more than 95% of intraepithelial CD8+ cells and on 40% of mucosa-associated T cells, whereas less than 2% of resting blood lymphocytes are CD103-positive. In several malignant conditions, such as T-cell lymphomas and hairy cell leukemia (HCL), the cells express CD103. This antibody is an extremely useful addition to the IHC panel for the diagnosis of hairy cell leukemia (HCL).
