Sandwich ELISA quantitative detection kit for Mouse ICAM-1 in cell culture supernates, serum, plasma (heparin, EDTA) and tissue homogenates. Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is an integral membrane protein, a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, and a ligand for lymphocyte function-associated (LFA) antigens, a beta 2 leukocyte integrin.1 The normal function of human intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is to provide adhesion between endothelial cells and leukocytes after injury or stress. ICAM-1 binds to leukocyte function-associated antigen (LFA-1) or macrophage-1 antigen (Mac-1).2 ICAM-1 is found on leukocytes, fibroblasts, epithelial cells and endothelial cells and its expression is regulated by inflammatory cytokines.3 ICAM-1 has a tissue distribution similar to that of the major histocompatibility complex class II antigens and is likely to play a role in inflammatory responses.1 The standard product used in this kit is produced by recombinant gene expression, which is a dimeric protein linked with disulfide bonds. The single chain is Gln28-Asn 485. It has 457 amino acids with the molecular mass of 76.8kD. As a result of glycosylation, the molecular mass of 110-130kD is revealed by SDS-PAGE. Assay Range: 156pg/ml-10,000pg/ml Sensitivity: < 10 pg/ml Crossreactivity: There is no detectable cross-reactivity with other relevant proteins.
