Target intelligence / Profile preview

Human Cell Surface Antigen CD47 (CD47)

Target
CD47
Molecular classification
Transmembrane protein, Immunoglobulin superfamily
01

Overview

Human cell surface antigen CD47 is an immunoglobulin superfamily member acting primarily through interaction with SIRPα to inhibit phagocytosis—a mechanism exploited by tumors—and serves diverse roles across immunity and metabolism with significant therapeutic interest.

Other names
Integrin-associated protein (IAP)MER6/OA3
02

Mechanism of action

Monoclonal antibodies against CD47 designed to block the CD47–SIRPα interaction, promoting tumor cell elimination
