General informationThis section has been translated automatically.

The binding of CD40 and CD154 to T cells enables the growth and differentiation of B cells. CD43 is not a specific T-cell marker, but the coexpression of CD43/CD5 with CD20 is considered an important indication of the presence of low-malignant B-cell lymphoma (e.g. B-CLL).
