CD54. also known as Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 (ICAM-1), is a cell surface glycoprotein belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily. It plays a critical role in immune and inflammatory responses by mediating leukocyte adhesion and transmigration. CD54 interacts with integrins like LFA-1 (Lymphocyte Function-Associated Antigen-1) on immune cells, facilitating cell-cell interactions during immune surveillance, pathogen recognition, and leukocyte recruitment to inflamed tissues. Its expression is upregulated on endothelial cells, epithelial cells, and immune cells in response to pro-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., TNF-α, IL-1) or infections.

CD54 antibodies are tools used to detect or modulate ICAM-1 activity. In research, they help study inflammatory diseases (e.g., atherosclerosis, asthma), cancer metastasis (via adhesion-mediated mechanisms), and autoimmune disorders. Therapeutically, anti-CD54 antibodies have been explored to block excessive leukocyte infiltration in conditions like rheumatoid arthritis or sepsis, though early clinical trials faced challenges due to off-target effects. Monoclonal anti-CD54 antibodies (e.g., enlimomab) showed mixed results in trials, highlighting the complexity of ICAM-1's role in inflammation.

These antibodies are also vital in flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and functional assays to quantify ICAM-1 expression or inhibit its interactions. Their dual role as diagnostic and therapeutic agents underscores CD54's significance in immune regulation and disease pathology.
