Target: ICAM-1.
Clone: 15,2.
Specificity: Mouse anti-Human Inter-Cellular Adhesion Molecule 1 (ICAM-1) (Clone 15.2) recognizes an epitope on Human ICAM-1.
Purification method: This monoclonal antibody was purified using multi-step affinity chromatography methods such as Protein A or G depending on the species and isotype.
Antigen Distribution: The CD54 antigen is a membrane glycoprotein with a wide tissue distribution that includes vascular endothelium and many cells of the immune system. CD54 is weakly expressed on resting peripheral blood lymphocytes. Upon activation by mitogens, the CD54 antigen is strongly expressed on B-cells, T-cells, macrophages and granulocytes. CD54 is the receptor for rhinoviruses and malaria.
Background: Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is one of an important cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) family transmembrane glycoprotein and is critical for the firm arrest and transmigration of leukocytes out of blood vessels and into tissues. ICAM-1 is constitutively present on endothelial cells, but its expression is increased by proinflammatory cytokines. ICAM-1 is a marker of endothelial dysfunction leading to damaging vascular disorders, in umbilical and placental vascular tissue of gestational pregnancies.
Immunogen: Human infant thymocytes and Sezary cells.
Concentration: 1.0 - 5.0 mg/ml.
Formulation: 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline (PBS) pH 7.2, 150 mM NaCl with no carrier protein, potassium or preservatives added.
