• Flow Cytometry:
  

  Flow cytometric analysis of ICAM1 (CD54) expression on spleen lymphocytes. Naive BALB/c splenocytes were treated with Mouse BD Fc Block™ purified anti-CD16/CD32 mAb 2.4G2 (Cat. No. 553141) and stained with FITC-conjugated anti-Mouse ICAM1 (CD54) (50440-R009-F). The histogram were derived from the gated events based on light scattering characteristics of lymphocytes.

  Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACSCalibur flow cytometry system

CD54 / ICAM1 Antibody Background

ICAM1 (Inter-Cellular Adhesion Molecule 1), also known as CD54, is a type of intercellular adhesion molecule constitutely present in low concentrations in the membranes of leukocytes and endothelial cells. As an endothelial and leukocyte-associated transmembrane protein, ICAM1 is well known for its importance in stabilizing cell-cell interactions and facilitating leukocyte endothelial transmigration.ICAM1 is a ligand for LFA-1 (integrin). When activated, leukocytes bind to endothelial cells via ICAM-1/LFA-1 interaction and then transmigrate into tissues. Presence with heavy glycosylation and other structural characteristics, ICAM1 possesses binding sites for a number of immune-associated ligands and serves as the binding site for entry of the major group of human Rhinovirus (HRV) into various cell types. ICAM1 also becomes known for its affinity for Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes (PFIE), providing more of a role in infectious disease.
