  FC experiment of human PBMCs using CL488-65223

  1X10^6 PHA-treated (day 3) human PBMCs were surface stained with 5 ul CoraLite® Plus 488 Anti-Human ALCAM (CL488-65223, Clone:3A6) (red), or unstained (blue). The black dashed line indicates unactivated PBMCs surface stained with 5 ul CoraLite® Plus 488 Anti-Human ALCAM (CL488-65223, Clone:3A6). Cells were not fixed. Monocytes were gated.

Background Information

Activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule (ALCAM, also known as CD166) is a cell adhesion molecule that belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. It is involved in cell-cell adhesion through homophilic and heterophilic (to CD6) interactions. ALCAM is widely expressed in a variety of normal tissues and cell types, including activated T cells and monocytes, epithelial cells, fibroblasts, neuronal cells, hepatocytes, and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (PMID: 7760007; 25221999). Altered ALCAM expression has been associated with the differentiation state and progression in some neoplasms including melanoma, prostate, colorectal, and breast cancers (PMID: 20461761; 18172759).
