ICAM5 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: ICAM5

Official Full Name: intercellular adhesion molecule 5provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM) family. All ICAM proteins are type I transmembrane glycoproteins, contain 2-9 immunoglobulin-like C2-type domains, and bind to the leukocyte adhesion LFA-1 protein. This protein is expressed on the surface of telencephalic neurons and displays two types of adhesion activity, homophilic binding between neurons and heterophilic binding between neurons and leukocytes. It may be a critical component in neuron-microglial cell interactions in the course of normal development or as part of neurodegenerative diseases. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Background

ICAM5 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cellular models designed to lack the intercellular adhesion molecule 5 (ICAM5), primarily expressed in neurons. By utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 genome-editing technology, these cell lines facilitate the investigation of ICAM5-related signaling pathways, enabling researchers to unravel its role in neural development, synaptic plasticity, and neuroinflammation.

The principal function of ICAM5 involves serving as a cell adhesion molecule that mediates interactions between neurons and other cells, influencing various physiological processes in the central nervous system. Given its involvement in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and multiple sclerosis, studying ICAM5 knockout models can provide insights into disease mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets. These cell lines allow researchers to examine cellular responses devoid of ICAM5, enhancing our understanding of neural interactions and the impact of inflammatory responses on neuronal wellness.

The scientific importance of ICAM5 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is emphasized by their diverse applications in neurobiology studies, drug development, and the exploration of cellular behavior in disease contexts. Compared to conventional models, these knockout cell lines offer a more precise framework for understanding specific molecular pathways, providing superior reproducibility and greater relevance in translational research settings.

Researchers and clinicians benefit from the unique selling points of these cell lines, including their ability to serve as a platform for in vitro assays related to cell adhesion studies and neurophysiology, allowing for the rapid screening of compounds that may modulate ICAM5-mediated pathways. This can lead to innovative strategies for therapeutic intervention in neurological disorders.
