mouse monoclonal IgG2a; ICAM-1 Antibody (G-5) is an IgG2a κ mouse monoclonal ICAM-1 antibody (also designated Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 antibody or CD54 antibody) that detects the ICAM-1 protein of mouse, rat and human origin by WB, IP, IF, IHC(P), FCM and ELISA. ICAM-1 Antibody (G-5) is available as both the non-conjugated anti-ICAM-1 antibody form, as well as multiple conjugated forms of anti-ICAM-1 antibody, including agarose, HRP, PE, FITC and multiple Alexa Fluor® conjugates. Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) are a family of closely related cell surface glycoproteins involved in cell-cell interactions during growth and are thought to play important, yet separate, roles in embryogenesis and development. The intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), also referred to as CD54, is an integral membrane protein of the immunoglobulin superfamily and recognizes the β2α1 and β2αM Integrins. ICAM-2 functions as a ligand for lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) and is involved in leukocyte adhesion. ICAM-3 is highly expressed on the surface of human eosinophils and, when bound to ligand, may inhibit eosinophil inflammatory responses and survival. ICAM-4, also known as LW glycoprotein, interacts with Integrins αLβ2, αMβ2, α4β1, the αV family and αIIbβ3, and selective binding to different integrins may be relevant to the pathology in a number of red blood cell associated diseases. Lastly, ICAM-5, expressed on telencephalic neurons, binds CD11a/CD18 and thus may act as an adhesion molecule for leukocyte binding in the central nervous system.
