EpCAM (Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule), also known as CD326, plays a crucial role in various cellular processes and has been linked to the development and progression of cancer. EpCAM is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is expressed in high levels on the surface of epithelial cells. In cancer cells, the expression of EpCAM is often upregulated, leading to increased cell proliferation, invasion, and metastasis. Studies have shown that high levels of EpCAM are associated with poor prognosis in various types of cancer, including breast, colon, and lung cancer. The overexpression of EpCAM in cancer cells makes it an attractive target for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Researchers are exploring the use of EpCAM as a biomarker for early cancer detection through blood tests and imaging techniques. In addition, EpCAM-targeted therapies, such as monoclonal antibodies and immunotherapies, are being developed to specifically target and kill cancer cells that overexpress EpCAM.

IHC testing of FFPE human ovarian carcinoma and EpCAM antibody (clone EGP40/1384). Required HIER: steam sections in pH6 citrate buffer for 10-20 min.
Immunofluorescent staining of human MCF-7 cells with EpCAM antibody (green, clone EGP40/1384) and Reddot nuclear stain (red).
Analysis of HuProt (TM) microarray containing more than 19, 000 full-length human proteins using EpCAM antibody (clone EGP40/1384). These results demonstrate the foremost specificity of the EGP40/1384 mAb. Z- and S- score: The Z-score represents the strength of a signal that an antibody (in combination with a fluorescently-tagged anti-IgG secondary Ab) produces when binding to a particular protein on the HuProt (TM) array. Z-scores are described in units of standard deviations (SDs) above the mean value of all signals generated on that array. If the targets on the HuProt (TM) are arranged in descending order of the Z-score, the S-score is the difference (also in units of SDs) between the Z-scores. The S-score therefore represents the relative target specificity of an Ab to its intended target.
