ab223582 staining EpCAM in wild-type A431 cells (top panel) and EpCAM knockout A431 cells (bottom panel). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated with ab223582 at 0.1μg/ml concentration and ab7291 (Mouse monoclonal to alpha Tubulin) at 1/1000 dilution overnight at 4°C followed by a further incubation at room temperature for 1h with a goat secondary antibody to rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150081) at 2 μg/ml (shown in green) and a goat secondary antibody to mouse IgG (Alexa Fluor® 594) (ab150120) at 2 μg/ml (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled in blue with DAPI. This antibody performed similarly using 100% methanol fixation. Image was acquired with a high-content analyser (Operetta CLS, Perkin Elmer) and a single confocal section is shown.

Fluorescence multiplex immunohistochemical analysis of Human breast cancer tissue (formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded section).

Merged staining of Anti-PD-L1 (ab251611; cyan; Opal™ 520), Anti-Granzyme B (ab219803; yellow; Opal™ 540), Anti-PD1 (ab251613; magenta; Opal™ 570), Anti-pan Cytokeratin (ab264485; red; Opal™ 620), Anti-EpCAM (ab225894; red; Opal™ 620), Anti-CD8 alpha (ab251596; green; Opal™ 650) and Anti-FOXP3 (ab96048; orange; Opal™ 690). EpCAM and pan-cytokeratin share the same dye and color. Dyes are pseudo-colored for better contrast of the markers.

The immunostaining was performed on a Leica Biosystems BOND® MAX instrument with an Opal™ 6-Plex Detection Kit (NEL821001KT, Akoya Biosciences®).

The section was incubated in six rounds of staining; sequentially for ab251611 (1/750 dilution), ab219803 (1/250 dilution), ab251613 (1/750 dilution), ab264485 (0.5 μg/ml), ab225894 (1/1250 dilution), ab251596 (1/1500 dilution) and ab96048 (10 μg/ml); each using a separate fluorescent tyramide signal amplification system. EDTA based antigen retrieval (Leica Biosystems BOND® Epitope Retrieval Solution 2, pH 9.0, 20 minutes) was used in between rounds of tyramide signal amplification to remove the antibody from the previous round, to avoid any cross-reactivity. DAPI (dark blue) was used as a nuclear counter stain.
Microscopy and pseudocoloring of individual Opal™ dyes was performed using a Vectra 3 Imaging System (Akoya Biosciences®).

Supplementary information

EpCAM also known as epithelial cell adhesion molecule is a transmembrane glycoprotein with a molecular weight of around 40 kDa. Alternative names include CD326 and TACSTD1. This protein is expressed on the surface of most epithelial cells and plays a role in cell adhesion. It is involved in maintaining the integrity of epithelial tissues by mediating homotypic cell-cell interactions which are important for the structure and function of tissues.
Biological function summary

EpCAM facilitates signaling pathways that impact cellular processes like proliferation and differentiation. It is not a part of a larger protein complex but interacts directly with other cellular machinery to transmit intracellular signals. EpCAM influences stem cell behavior and is important in tissue homeostasis assisting in both normal regenerative processes and wound healing.

Pathways

EpCAM participates in regulatory mechanisms involving the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway which affects gene expression and cell fate decisions. Through its action EpCAM modulates components like E-cadherin which is important for cell adhesion and the maintenance of the epithelial layer. It indirectly influences pathways relating to MYC a transcription factor that regulates cell cycle progression and apoptosis.

EpCAM is associated with various types of cancer including colorectal and breast cancer. Its overexpression often correlates with aggressive cancer phenotypes and poor prognosis. Besides cancers EpCAM mutations can lead to congenital tufting enteropathy a rare condition affecting intestinal epithelial structure and function. Aberrant EpCAM expression affects β-catenin levels impacting cellular pathways linked to tumor progression and epithelial integrity.

Target data

May act as a physical homophilic interaction molecule between intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) and intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) at the mucosal epithelium for providing immunological barrier as a first line of defense against mucosal infection. Plays a role in embryonic stem cells proliferation and differentiation. Up-regulates the expression of FABP5, MYC and cyclins A and E.
