Recombinant EpCAM antibody provides a dependable method for detecting epithelial cell adhesion molecule, a type I transmembrane glycoprotein encoded by the TACSTD1 gene. EpCAM is expressed on the basolateral surfaces of most epithelial tissues and is frequently upregulated in carcinomas. It contributes to cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation, and has been recognized as both a stem cell marker and a tumor associated antigen.
EpCAM mediates homophilic interactions that strengthen epithelial cohesion. Beyond adhesion, proteolytic cleavage of its intracellular domain influences transcriptional regulation, linking EpCAM to growth and signaling pathways. Dysregulated expression promotes tumorigenesis, enabling invasion and metastasis. This dual role in normal epithelial biology and cancer makes EpCAM an important focus for both fundamental and clinical studies.
The Recombinant EpCAM antibody clone rEGP40/1110 ensures accurate and reproducible detection. Recombinant technology enhances batch to batch consistency, reducing variability in experiments. Clone rEGP40/1110 has been widely employed in cancer research to evaluate epithelial tumors such as colorectal, breast, and ovarian carcinomas. It is also used to identify epithelial progenitor cells, where EpCAM expression marks populations with regenerative capacity.
Studies with clone rEGP40/1110 have clarified how EpCAM expression reflects epithelial state and tumor progression. Elevated expression correlates with poor prognosis in several cancers, while its role in stem cell biology underscores its importance in regenerative medicine. Researchers rely on this antibody to map EpCAM distribution and understand its contributions to disease and tissue renewal.
NSJ Bioreagents supplies this Recombinant EpCAM antibody to support studies in epithelial biology, oncology, and regenerative research. EpCAM is also referred to as epithelial cell adhesion molecule antibody, TACSTD1 antibody, ESA antibody, and 323A3 12 antibody, reflecting the varied nomenclature used in scientific literature.
Optimal dilution of the recombinant EpCAM antibody should be determined by the researcher.
1. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.
A portion of amino acids 289-314 (cytoplasmic domain) was used as the immunogen for the recombinant EpCAM antibody.
Store the recombinant EpCAM antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20oC or colder (without azide).
