Abstract

The human CD38 molecule appears to mediate several diverse activities, including signal transduction, cell adhesion and cyclic ADP-ribose synthesis. In this article, the authors consolidate the information available on this highly interesting, multifunctional protein.

    Muylle et al. showed that, without a preload of unlabeled rituximab, an optimized 89Zr-rituximab immunoPET/CT scanning strategy enabled higher tumor uptake and clearer tumor visualization.25 CD38 is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is expressed on nearly all myeloma cells, as well as at lower levels on normal lymphoid cells and myeloid cells.26 Several mAbs (e.g., daratumumab) targeting CD38 have been investigated for imaging CD38-positive cancers.
