Scientific Data
Detection of ESAM in HUVECs by Flow Cytometry. HUVEC human umbilical vein endothelial cells were stained with Mouse Anti-Human ESAM Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog #MAB42042, filled histogram) or Mouse IgG2B isotype control antibody (MAB0041, open histogram) followed by Phycoerythrin-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (F0102B). Staining was performed using our Staining Membrane-associated Proteins protocol.

Background: ESAM
Endothelial cell-selective adhesion molecule (ESAM) is a 55 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the JAM family of immunoglobulin superfamily molecules (1, 2). Human ESAM is synthesized as a 390 amino acid (aa) protein composed of a 29 aa signal peptide, a 216 aa extracellular region, a putative 26 aa transmembrane segment, and a 119 aa cytoplasmic domain. The extracellular region contains one V-type and one C2-type Ig domain and is involved in homophilic adhesion (1). In the cytoplasmic domain, there is a docking site for the multifunctional adaptor protein MAGI-1 (3). The extracellular region of human ESAM shows 90%, 74%, 69%, and 67% aa identity with monkey, canine, mouse, and rat extracellular ESAM, respectively. ESAM is expressed on endothelial cells, activated platelets, and megakaryocytes and can be found associated with cell-to-cell junctions. Whether ESAM is restricted to a particular junctional type is not clear (1, 2). ESAM deficient mice have no defect in vascularization but do have reduced angiogenic potential. This may be due to a decreased migratory response to FGF-2 (4).
