Assay Principle
This sandwich ELISA quantifies rat intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (gene ICAM1) in cell culture supernatants, cell lysates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA). Strips are pre-coated with a capture antibody. After the sample is added, a biotinylated detection antibody binds the captured protein, and an avidin–biotin–peroxidase complex supplies the enzyme. TMB develops color in proportion to the bound target; the reaction is stopped and read at 450 nm, and concentrations are read from the standard curve.
ICAM-1 (CD54) is a cell surface glycoprotein of the immunoglobulin superfamily that is strongly induced on endothelial and immune cells by inflammatory cytokines. It binds the integrins LFA-1 and Mac-1 on leukocytes, supporting their firm adhesion and passage across blood vessel walls as well as T-cell activation, and it is a widely used marker of endothelial activation and inflammation.
