Background: CD37

CD37, also known as TSPAN26, is a 40‑45 kDa palmitoylated traspanin superfamily glycoprotein that is mainly expressed by B cell lymphocytes and myeloid cells (1). Tetraspanins are characterized by four transmembrane domains, one small extracellular loop (SEL) and one large extracellular loop (LEL), and short N- and C-termini (1). The CD37-LEL has the most variation across these different domains, but a CCG motif and the position of the last cysteine residue in the LEL are conserved in all tetraspanins (2). Tetraspanins form complexes with a wide range of transmembrane and cytoplasmic proteins, including integrins, forming small networks referred to as tetraspanin enriched microdomains, or TEMs (1). Human CD37-LEL shares 66% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat CD37. CD37 directly associates with dectin-1 on macrophages and stabilizes cell surface dectin-1 expression (3). It also inhibits T cell activation and proliferation by limiting T cell receptor signaling (4). Mice deficient in CD37 develop B cell lymphoma (5). Kidneys of CD37-/- mice showed more mesangial proliferation, endothelial cell activation, podocyte activation, and segmental podocyte foot process effacement compared to the CD37/Il6 double-knockout mice, emphasizing that IL-6 mediates renal pathology in CD37-/- mice. Thus, CD37 may protect against IgA nephropathy by inhibition of the IL-6 pathway (6).
