EpCAM Antibody Mouse Small Intestine IHC. Immunohistochemistry staining of FFPE mouse small intestine tissue using EpCAM Antibody demonstrates strong membranous HRP-DAB brown staining throughout the intestinal epithelial lining, including enterocytes lining the villi and crypt-associated epithelial structures. The staining pattern is consistent with expression of Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule (EPCAM/CD326), a transmembrane glycoprotein involved in epithelial cell adhesion, maintenance of tissue architecture, and regulation of epithelial differentiation. Prominent membrane localization highlights the organized epithelial compartment of the intestinal mucosa and is consistent with the established expression of EPCAM in gastrointestinal epithelial tissues. The observed staining supports the use of EpCAM as a marker for epithelial cell identification, tissue organization studies, and investigations of intestinal epithelial biology. HIER: boil tissue sections in pH 8 EDTA buffer for 20 minutes and allow to cool before testing.
EpCAM Antibody Mouse Small Intestine Villus IHC. Immunohistochemistry staining of FFPE mouse small intestine tissue using EpCAM Antibody demonstrates distinct membranous HRP-DAB brown staining along the epithelial lining of intestinal villi and crypt structures. The staining pattern is consistent with expression of Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule (EPCAM/CD326), a cell surface glycoprotein that mediates epithelial cell adhesion and contributes to maintenance of epithelial integrity and tissue architecture. Strong localization at epithelial cell borders highlights the highly organized nature of the intestinal mucosa and is consistent with the established expression of EPCAM throughout gastrointestinal epithelial compartments. The observed staining supports the use of EpCAM as a marker for epithelial cell identification, intestinal epithelial differentiation, and studies of epithelial tissue organization. HIER: boil tissue sections in pH 8 EDTA buffer for 20 minutes and allow to cool before testing.
EpCAM Antibody Rat Small Intestine IHC. Immunohistochemistry staining of FFPE rat small intestine tissue using EpCAM Antibody demonstrates membranous HRP-DAB brown staining throughout the intestinal epithelial compartment, including surface epithelial cells and glandular crypt structures. The staining pattern is consistent with expression of Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule (EPCAM/CD326), a transmembrane glycoprotein involved in epithelial cell adhesion, maintenance of tissue architecture, and regulation of epithelial homeostasis. Prominent staining along the epithelial lining highlights the organized cellular boundaries of the intestinal mucosa and is characteristic of EPCAM expression in gastrointestinal epithelial tissues. The observed immunoreactivity supports the use of EpCAM as a marker for epithelial cell identification, intestinal epithelial biology, and studies of epithelial differentiation and tissue organization. HIER: boil tissue sections in pH 8 EDTA buffer for 20 minutes and allow to cool before testing.
EpCAM Antibody Rat Small Intestine Crypt IHC. Immunohistochemistry staining of FFPE rat small intestine tissue using EpCAM Antibody demonstrates distinct membranous HRP-DAB brown staining within epithelial cells lining the intestinal mucosa, with particularly prominent signal along the luminal surface and crypt-associated glandular structures. The staining pattern is consistent with expression of Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule (EPCAM/CD326), a cell surface glycoprotein involved in epithelial cell adhesion, tissue organization, and maintenance of epithelial integrity. Strong membrane-associated staining highlights epithelial cell boundaries and reflects the established localization of EPCAM within gastrointestinal epithelial compartments.

Description

EpCAM Antibody recognizes Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule (EPCAM), also known as CD326 and TACSTD1, a cell surface glycoprotein that is widely expressed by epithelial tissues and epithelial-derived neoplasms. EPCAM is best known for its role in maintaining epithelial cell identity and promoting interactions between neighboring cells within organized tissue structures. Because of its broad expression across epithelial compartments, EPCAM has become one of the most frequently studied epithelial biomarkers in both basic and translational research. Antibodies to EPCAM are commonly utilized for identification, characterization, and isolation of epithelial cell populations in tissue sections, cultured cells, and clinical specimens.

Although initially characterized as an adhesion molecule, EPCAM is now recognized as a multifunctional protein that participates in a variety of cellular processes. Through interactions with signaling pathways that regulate proliferation, differentiation, and survival, EPCAM contributes to tissue development and epithelial homeostasis. Expression levels can vary depending on tissue type, developmental stage, and physiological state, making EPCAM a useful marker for investigating epithelial biology under both normal and pathological conditions. Its prominent membrane localization also facilitates visualization of tissue architecture and cellular organization in histological analyses.

In oncology research, EPCAM is widely employed as a marker of epithelial-derived tumor cells. Many carcinomas retain EPCAM expression, allowing researchers to distinguish epithelial tumor populations from surrounding stromal and inflammatory cells. EPCAM has therefore become an important target for studies involving tumor classification, circulating tumor cell detection, tumor heterogeneity, and epithelial differentiation. Its widespread use across multiple cancer types has established EPCAM as one of the most recognized biomarkers in epithelial cancer research.

EPCAM is also valuable in developmental biology and regenerative medicine, where it is frequently associated with epithelial progenitor populations and actively growing epithelial tissues. Researchers utilize EPCAM antibodies to monitor epithelial differentiation, investigate organ development, characterize organoid cultures, and study tissue repair mechanisms. The broad utility of EPCAM across numerous biological systems makes it a versatile marker for studies involving epithelial growth, maintenance, and regeneration.

At NSJ Bioreagents, we provide highly validated antibodies for cancer research, developmental biology, stem cell studies, and cell biology applications. EpCAM Antibody is useful for detection of epithelial cell populations, analysis of epithelial-derived tumors, investigation of tissue architecture, and characterization of epithelial differentiation pathways. Continued research into EPCAM is enhancing our understanding of epithelial tissue function, cellular communication, and the molecular mechanisms that govern tissue development and disease.
