ICAM-2

Intercellular adhesion molecule 2 (ICAM2) is also known as CD antigen CD102, which belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily and ICAM family. ICAM2 contains two Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains. ICAM proteins are ligands for the leukocyte adhesion protein LFA-1 (integrin alpha-L/beta-2). ICAM2 / CD102 may play a role in lymphocyte recirculation by blocking LFA-1-dependent cell adhesion. It mediates adhesive interactions important for antigen-specific immune response, NK-cell mediated clearance, lymphocyte recirculation, and other cellular interactions important for immune response and surveillance.
