Protocol Available protocols: Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin) Specificity / Sensitivity ICAM-5 (F8V5B) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total ICAM-5 protein. Non-specific staining was observed in mouse pancreas and small intestine by immunohistochemistry. Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Pro40 of human ICAM-5 protein. Background Intercellular adhesion molecule-5 (ICAM-5), also known as telencephalin, is a type I membrane glycoprotein expressed on the surface of telencephalic neurons in the brain that plays a role in neuronal adhesion, signal transmission, and neurite outgrowth (1). ICAM-5 contains nine immunoglobulin-like domains in its extracellular region, which interact with integrins and ERM-family proteins, facilitating the formation of functional synapses and dendritic filopodia, respectively (2,3). This extracellular region has also been shown to be cleaved, forming a soluble ICAM-5 fragment implicated in the immune system, potentially playing a neuroprotective role in neurodegeneration (4-6).
