, Mouse/Rat CD166 Detector Antibody (unconjugated)
The reference range value is 7.81-1000 pg/mL.
The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Please note that the range provided for this antibody is only an estimation based on the performance of the product using the recommended antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody in your assay.
Our carrier-free formats are supplied in a buffer free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol for higher conjugation efficiency. The antibodies are provided at an approximate concentration of 1 mg/ml as measured by the protein A280 method. Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with <1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

CD166 also known as ALCAM (activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule) is a cell surface glycoprotein with a mass of approximately 105 kDa. This protein is widely expressed on various cell types including activated T-cells keratinocytes neurons and endothelial cells. In the immune system CD166 has roles in T-cell activation and migration. It contains five extracellular immunoglobulin-like domains which facilitate cell-cell interactions. Researchers often regard ALCAM-Z as an alternative form sharing structural elements with CD166 protein.
Biological function summary
CD166 mediates cell-cell adhesion and plays roles in neuronal development. It participates in the formation of synaptic junctions and affects neuronal differentiation. CD166 is also a component of cell signaling complexes influencing cell proliferation and migration. In addition it controls interactions between T-cells and dendritic cells impacting immune response. Its interactions with other adhesion molecules contribute to cellular communication and tissue integrity.
Pathways
CD166 functions within signaling pathways related to cell adhesion and migration. It is involved in the Wnt signaling pathway and its interactions regulate cell polarity and morphogenesis. CD166 interacts closely with proteins such as CD6 and Catenins impacting cellular signaling and the organization of the cytoskeleton. These pathways affect processes like embryonic development and immune cell function.
CD166 has implications in cancer and autoimmune diseases. Its dysregulation links to cancer metastasis where altered expression facilitates tumor invasion and spread. CD166 also relates to autoimmune diseases through its role in T-cell activation potentially contributing to conditions like multiple sclerosis. The interaction between CD166 and CD6 influences immune cell activation and may offer therapeutic targets for modulating immune responses in these disorders.
