What is CD138?
CD138 (also known as Syndecan-1) is a cell surface protein primarily expressed on plasma cells and certain other cell types like endothelial cells and some epithelial cells. It plays a role in cell adhesion, migration, and interaction with the extracellular matrix.
In clinical diagnostics, CD138 is used as a biomarker to identify and isolate plasma cells, especially in conditions like multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer where malignant plasma cells proliferate. CD138 is commonly detected through techniques such as immunohistochemistry or flow cytometry.
Its expression can help diagnose multiple myeloma, assess disease progression, and monitor treatment efficacy.
