CD56 Antibody (MA5-16445) in ICC/IF
Immunofluorescence analysis of Neural cell adhesion molecule 1 was performed using 70% confluent log phase IMR-32 cells. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 10 minutes and blocked with 2% BSA for 1 hour at room temperature. The cells were labeled with CD56 Monoclonal Antibody (123C3) (Product # MA5-16445, MA5-16446) at 1:200 in 0.1% BSA, incubated at 4 degree celsius overnight and then labeled with Donkey anti-Mouse IgG (H+L) Highly Cross-Adsorbed Secondary Antibody, Alexa Fluor Plus 488 (Product # A32766), (1:2000), for 45 m...

Product Specific Information
Heat-mediated antigen retrieval using a sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0) is recommended for the staining of paraffin sections. For FACS analysis, use 10 µL of the suggested working dilution to label 1x10^6 cells in 100 µL.
Mouse anti Human CD56 antibody, clone 123C3 recognizes human neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM), otherwise known as CD56.
Target Information
CD56, also known as neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM), is a highly glycosylated transmembrane glycoprotein of the immunoglobulin family. It plays a crucial role in cell adhesion, migration, axonal growth, pathfinding, and synaptic plasticity. CD56 is ubiquitously expressed in the nervous system in isoforms ranging from 120-180 kDa and is involved in homotypic adhesion of neural cells. It mediates interactions by binding extracellular matrix components such as laminin and integrins, with polysialic modification reducing CD56-mediated adhesion. In the hematopoietic system, CD56 is expressed on natural killer (NK) cells and a subset of T cells known as NKT cells. It is also found on most neuroectodermal-derived cell lines, tissues, and neoplasms, including retinoblastoma, medulloblastoma, astrocytomas, and neuroblastoma. CD56 serves as a widely used neuroendocrine marker with high sensitivity for neuroendocrine tumors and ovarian granulosa cell tumors. Diseases associated with CD56 dysfunction include rabies and blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasms, highlighting its importance in both neural and immune system functions.
