Human Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 (Recombinant)

Recombinant Human Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 (ICAM-1)

Source: E.Coli

Background: ICAM-1 (CD54) is a single chain membrane glycoprotein expressed on the surface of a variety of non-haematopoietic and haematopoietic cell types and has roles in signal transduction, cell signalling and lymphocyte adhesion. Soluble ICAM-1 is detectable in the plasma and is elevated in patients with various inflammatory conditions. Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) is the cellular receptor for the major group of human rhinovirus serotypes, including human rhinovirus 14 (HRV14) and HRV16.
