HCAM Antibody (BU52) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects HCAM in human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), and flow cytometry (FCM). HCAM, also known as CD44, is a 742 amino acid single-pass type I membrane protein that plays a crucial role in cell adhesion and migration, which are vital processes in embryogenesis, immune response, and tumor metastasis. This protein functions primarily as a receptor for hyaluronic acid (HA) and interacts with various ligands, including osteopontin (OPN), facilitating both cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. HCAM′s structure features a Link domain, which is essential for binding capabilities and functional versatility. HCAM undergoes alternative splicing, resulting in multiple isoforms such as CD44R, CDw44, CD44S, CD44H, and CD44E, with CD44H being particularly prominent in cancer tissues. High expression levels in tumors suggest HCAM, especially CD44H variant, may play a pivotal role in tumor progression and metastasis, making HCAM a critical target for cancer research and therapeutic interventions. Anti-HCAM antibody (BU52) serves as an invaluable tool for researchers investigating cell adhesion and migration in various biological contexts.
