ICC shows positive staining in HT-29 cells (top panel) and negative staining in Jurkat cells (below panel). Anti-EpCAM (PE Conjugate) antibody was used at 1/200 dilution (Red) and incubated overnight at 4°C. The cells were fixed with 100% ice-cold methanol and permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (Blue).

Background
EpCAM (epithelial cell adhesion molecule, CD326) is a 35–40 kDa type-I transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on most epithelia, where it first assembles into cis-dimers that further cluster into tetramers to support homotypic cell–cell contacts, and then—through sequential proteolytic cleavage—releases its intracellular domain (EpICD) that partners with β-catenin, FHL2 and LEF1 to enter the nucleus and drive Wnt-dependent transcription of genes controlling proliferation, stemness and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, thereby functioning not merely as an adhesion molecule but as a dynamic signaling hub that is highly up-regulated in most carcinomas, marks circulating tumor and cancer stem cells, and serves as both a prognostic biomarker and a therapeutic target while mutations that truncate or mis-localize the protein underlie the severe congenital diarrhea disorder tufting enteropathy.
