[Expression of CD72 is restricted to B-lineage cells and is turned off in differentiated antibody-secreting plasma cells. CD72 may participate in signals for B-cell proliferation and differentiation. In the immune system, CD72 appears to be a receptor for leukocyte activation antigen, CD100. CD72 may also be the ligand for CD5, a receptor that regulates T-cell proliferation.
