CD235a marks red blood cells. In an immune test its job is the opposite of the others: it is used to find red cells so they can be excluded, because there are far too many of them to leave in.
CD235a is glycophorin A, the main sialoglycoprotein of the red cell membrane and the carrier of the MN blood group antigens. It appears in whole-blood immune panels as a dump marker: red cells outnumber white cells by roughly a thousand to one, so they are identified by CD235a and excluded before anything else is counted. It is also used to identify erythroid precursors in marrow, which matters in myelodysplastic syndromes and erythroleukaemia.
In plain words · CD235a marks red blood cells. In an immune test its job is the opposite of the others: it is used to find red cells so they can be excluded, because there are far too many of them to leave in.

No product in this corpus aims at CD235a yet. Because it sits on the outside of the cell, it can be reached from the bloodstream: antibodies flag the cell, ADCs deliver a toxin, radioligands deliver radiation, and CAR-T or bispecifics bring a T cell.
