CD3 is a multi-subunit protein complex expressed on the surface of T lymphocytes as part of the T cell receptor (TCR) complex. It plays a central role in T cell activation by transmitting signals from the TCR upon antigen recognition. Because of its consistent expression across all mature T cells, CD3 serves as a key pan-T cell marker in immunology research. Anti-CD3 antibodies are widely used to study T cell biology and immune signaling. They are used to identify and characterize T cells or activate T cells in vitro by crosslinking the TCR/CD3 complex, enabling functional assays of proliferation and cytokine production. The versatile applications make anti-CD3 antibodies essential tools in immunology, cancer immunotherapy research and studies of autoimmune disease.
