If additional dilution is required, carrier proteins such as FBS or BSA should be added to maintain protein stability. |
CD22 is a B cell–specific transmembrane glycoprotein that functions as an important regulator of B cell receptor (BCR) signaling and immune tolerance. Also known as Siglec-2, CD22 belongs to the sialic acid–binding immunoglobulin-like lectin (Siglec) family and is expressed almost exclusively on mature B cells, with expression increasing as B cells progress from the naïve to mature stages. Through its inhibitory signaling capacity, CD22 helps fine-tune B cell activation and prevent inappropriate immune responses.
Structurally, CD22 is a type I transmembrane protein with a large extracellular region composed of seven immunoglobulin-like domains. The N-terminal domain mediates binding to sialic acid–containing glycans, which serve as its primary ligands. CD22 preferentially recognizes α2,6-linked sialic acids that are commonly present on glycoproteins and glycolipids expressed on B cells themselves (cis interactions) as well as on neighboring cells (trans interactions). The cytoplasmic tail of CD22 contains multiple immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs (ITIMs), which are essential for its signaling function. Functionally, CD22 acts as a negative regulator of BCR signaling. Upon BCR engagement, CD22 becomes phosphorylated and recruits phosphatases such as SHP-1 to its ITIM motifs. These phosphatases attenuate downstream signaling pathways, thereby raising the threshold for B cell activation. Through this mechanism, CD22 contributes to the maintenance of B cell tolerance and limits excessive antibody production. CD22 also influences B cell survival, migration, and interactions within lymphoid tissues.
Dysregulation of CD22 expression or signaling has been linked to immune-mediated diseases and malignancy. Reduced CD22 function can lead to hyperactive B cells and has been associated with autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus. In contrast, CD22 is frequently overexpressed on B cell malignancies, including B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) and certain non-Hodgkin lymphomas, making it an attractive diagnostic and therapeutic target.
CD22 plays a significant role in therapeutics, particularly in the treatment of B cell cancers. Antibody-based therapies targeting CD22 have been developed to selectively eliminate malignant B cells. Notably, antibody–drug conjugates and immunotoxins that bind CD22 deliver cytotoxic agents directly to cancerous B cells, sparing most non–B cell populations. CD22 is also being explored as a target for engineered cell therapies and for strategies aimed at modulating B cell activity in autoimmune disease. Together, these approaches highlight CD22 as a key molecule at the intersection of B cell biology, disease, and targeted therapy.
