Specificity
The interference of circulating factors of the immune systeme was evaluated by spiking these proteins at physiologically relevant concentrations into a human sICAM-1 positive serum.There was no cross reactivity detected with sTNF-R (60 kDa), sTNF-R (80 kDa), IL-8/NAP-1, TNF, TNF, IFN, IFN2C, IFNω, IL-6, IL-2R, ELAM-1 and L-selectin.

Summary
Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is a member of the immunoglobulin supergene family and functions as a ligand for the Lymphocyte Function-Associated Antigen-1 (LFA-1), an alpha-beta-complex that is a member of the leukocyte integrin family of cell-cell and cell-matrix receptors. This family consists of the leukocyte adhesion glycoproteins LFA-1 which mediates lymphocyte adhesion, Mac-1 which mediates granulocyte adhesion and p150,95.
ICAM-1 is a single-chain glycoprotein with a polypeptide core of 55kD that can be expressed on non-hematopoietic cells of many lineages such as vascular endothelial cells, thymic epithelial cells, other epithelial cells and fibroblasts and on hematopoietic cells such as tissue macrophages, mitogen-stimulated T-lymphoblasts, germinal center B-cells and dendritic cells in tonsils, lymph nodes and Peyer's patches. ICAM-1 is inducible on fibroblasts and endothelial cells by inflammatory mediators such as IL-1, TNF and IFN within few hours and is correlated to the infiltration of lymphocytes into inflammatory lesions. ICAM-1 seems to be the initial marker of inflammatory reactions and is expressed prior to, and to a greater extent than is HLA-DR.
The role of ICAM-1 as a disease marker has been demonstrated for a number of different indications and pathological situations.
