General description

Transferrin receptor 1 (CD71) is expressed on placental syncytiotrophoblasts, myocytes, basal keratinocytes, hepatocytes, endocrine pancreas, spermatocytes, and erythroid precursors. The level of transferrin receptor expression is highest in early erythroid precursors through the intermediate normoblast phase, after which expression decreases through the reticulocyte phase. The maturation of erythrocytes results in loss of transferrin receptor expression. AntiCD71 is useful in identifying erythroid precursors. The high level of transferrin receptor within erythroid precursors makes anti-CD71 an excellent marker for evaluation of erythroid precursors within bone marrow biopsy specimens and shows the following features: 1) distinct membranous and cytoplasmic staining pattern, which is easily recognized in bone marrow biopsy; 2) restriction to erythroid lineage within bone marrow biopsy specimens; 3) CD71 expression decreases with the maturation of erythrocytes, with the highest level seen in early forms and the lowest level in late normoblast stage, and most importantly; 4) mature erythrocytes do not express CD71.
