Antibody panel to Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule (EpCAM)

Introduction

Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule (EpCAM) is a 40kD cell surface antigen. This antigen has been identified independently by a number of groups, and has been known by a variety of names (CD326, KSA, ESA, Lymphocyte antigen 74, M1S2, M4S1, GA733 2, MIC18, MK1, TACSTD1, TROP1).

Several monoclonal antibodies have been raised against EpCAM, many of which have been described as tumour specific molecules on carcinomas. EpCAM is a Type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein. It is expressed on the basolateral membrane of cells by the majority of epithelial tissues, with the exception of adult squamous epithelium and some specific epithelial cell types including hepatocytes and gastric epithelial cells. EpCAM expression has been reported to be a possible marker of early malignancy, with expression being increased in tumour cells, and de novo expression being seen in dysplastic squamous epithelium.
