Product details:
Human CEACAM1 ELISA Kit (ab215540) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of CEACAM1 protein in cell culture extracts, cit plasma, edta plasma, hep plasma, serum, cell culture supernatant, and tissue extracts. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Human CEACAM1 with 9.1 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:
- Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
- High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
- Fully validated in biological samples
- 96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips
A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (
ab203359
) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.
CEACAM1 (Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1 or BGP-1 or CD66a) is a member of the CEA family of cell surface transmembrane proteins. The antibodies in this kit were raised to the full extracellular domain of CEACAM1.

CEACAM1 also known as CD66a is a cell adhesion molecule that plays a critical role in various cellular processes. The protein weighs around 120 kDa and is part of the immunoglobulin superfamily. CEACAM1 is expressed on the surface of various cell types including epithelial cells leukocytes and endothelial cells. The presence of CEACAM1 is important in tissues such as the liver lungs and gastrointestinal tract where it performs essential roles in cell signaling and communication.
Biological function summary
CEACAM1 influences cellular adhesion and immune responses by mediating cell-cell interactions. It forms homophilic dimers at the cell surface and it can participate in heterophilic interactions with other proteins making it part of complex cell signaling networks. These interactions regulate immune cell functions contributing to innate immune responses and cellular homeostasis. CEACAM1 also modulates angiogenesis endothelial cell permeability and apoptosis.
Pathways
CEACAM1 is involved in signaling and regulatory pathways important for immune surveillance and inflammation. It is a part of the TGF-beta signaling pathway affecting cellular proliferation and differentiation. CEACAM1 interacts with proteins such as SHP-1 and SHP-2 which are essential in modulating immune responses. Additionally CEACAM1 influences the MAPK/ERK pathway which plays a role in cell growth and survival.
CEACAM1 is associated with cancer and inflammatory diseases. In colorectal cancer altered expression of CEACAM1 contributes to tumor progression and metastasis. The protein also plays a role in inflammatory bowel disease where it affects the epithelial barrier function and immune cell interaction. Through these conditions CEACAM1 interacts with other proteins like CEA and IL-6 which are pivotal in disease development and progression.
