Product Specific Information

The G8.8 monoclonal antibody reacts with the 40 kDa mouse EpCAM (epithelial cellular adhesion molecule), also known as EGP40, 17-1A antigen, TACSTD1, and CD326. The immunogen used was the TE-71 thymic epithelial cell line. CD326 is expressed on most epithelial cells and is considered a pan-carcinoma antigen mediating calcium-independent, homophilic cell-cell adhesion and potentially functioning as a growth factor receptor. It binds LAIR-1 (CD305) and LAIR-2 (CD306) to inhibit cellular activation and inflammation.

Applications Reported: Flow cytometric analysis.
Applications Tested: Tested on TE-71 cell line; ≤0.25 µg per test (100 µL final volume). Cell number range: 10⁵–10⁸ cells/test. Titrate for optimal performance.

Fluorescence Characteristics:

• Excitation: 633–647 nm
• Emission: 723 nm
• Laser: Red Laser
• Recommended filters: 685 LP mirror, 710/20 band pass filter

Target Information

Ep-CAM (epithelial adhesion molecule, ESA) is a transmembrane glycoprotein (~40 kDa) expressed in epithelial tissues. It functions as a calcium-independent homotypic adhesion molecule, influencing cell cycle, proliferation, and metabolism by inducing genes such as c-myc, cyclin A, and E. Ep-CAM-mediated adhesions negatively regulate cadherin-mediated adhesions, affecting epithelial differentiation and growth. Overexpression is associated with enhanced epithelial proliferation and is highly expressed in human carcinomas, serving as a marker for epithelial lineage tumors. It is localized on basolateral surfaces of simple epithelia and many carcinoma types and helps distinguish adenocarcinomas from pleural mesotheliomas.
