Product details

Human CEA ELISA Kit ab264604 is a rapid single-wash 90-min Sandwich ELISA to measure Human CEA in cell culture extracts, cell culture media, cell lysate, citrate plasma, EDTA plasma, heparin plasma, serum, tissue extracts. This SimpleStep sensitivity is 24.68 pg/mL.

How the assay works

Human CEA SimpleStep ELISA^{^®}employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA^{^®} plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA^{^®} protocol summary in the image section for further details.

Assay Specificity

Our SimpleStep ELISA^® kits use recombinant monoclonal antibodies rigorously validated to ensure the highest level of consistency and reproducibility, improved sensitivity and specificity and ease of scalability and security of supply.
Please refer to our protocol booklet for more details.

Human CEA ELISA Kit ab264604 protocol summary

1. Mix: add samples/standards to the wells together with the capture and detector antibody cocktail. Incubate 1 hr at room temperature
2. Wash
3. Add TMB development solution - incubate for 10 min
4. Add Stop solution
5. Read the results on a plate reader at 450 nm

Design your own immunoassay

We offer the antibody pair used in this kit in a BSA and Azide-free format, ready for conjugation:

- Anti-CEACAM5 antibody [EPR22676-37] - BSA and Azide free (Capture) ab270312
- Anti-CEACAM5 antibody [EPR22676-256] - BSA and Azide free (Detector) ab270312

CEA is encoded by the CECAM5 gene which produces a cell adhesion molecule consisting of an Ig variable region-like amino-terminal domain followed by up to six Ig constant region-like domains anchored to the cell membrane by either a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) moiety or a proteinaceous transmembrane and cytoplasmic domain. CEA is normally expressed on epithelial cells and is found abundantly on the apical surface of the gastrointestinal epithelium, as well as the nasopharynx, lung, urogenital tract, and sweat glands. Under physiologic conditions, only low amounts of soluble CEA can be detected in serum. However, in many different cancers, CEA is highly up regulated.

Supplementary information

CEACAM5 also known as Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) or CD66e is a glycoprotein found mainly on the surface of epithelial cells. This protein has a mass of approximately 180 kDa. It gets expressed in a variety of tissues with high expression in the gastrointestinal tract including the colon and rectum. CEACAM5 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and plays a role in cell adhesion influencing how cells stick to each other.

Biological function summary

CEACAM5 contributes to cellular processes involving cell adhesion and immune response modulation. This protein operates as part of a larger group of cell adhesion molecules and does not function as part of a complex. CEACAM5 can affect the interactions between cells and the extracellular matrix which has implications for tissue structuring and integrity. It helps the immune system recognize and respond to infectious agents or cellular anomalies.

Pathways

CEACAM5 involvement extends to immune response regulation and cell adhesion pathways. It interacts functionally with proteins like E-cadherin in these pathways which contribute to maintaining epithelial integrity. These pathways are critical for normal tissue maintenance and immune system function especially in mucosal surfaces where pathogen entry occurs. Understanding CEACAM5 interactions provides insight into cellular communication and adhesion mechanisms.

CEACAM5 is associated with colorectal cancer and lung adenocarcinoma. Its overexpression and release into the bloodstream make it a popular biomarker for these diseases. CEACAM5 is used in clinical applications such as CEA ELISA assays for cancer detection and monitoring. In colorectal cancer CEACAM5 interacts with proteins like CEACAM6 to promote tumor invasiveness and metastasis. Anti-CEACAM5 therapeutics including antibody-drug conjugates (anti-CEACAM5 ADC) are being developed to target and treat associated malignancies.
