Background:

Intercellular cell adhesion molecule-2 (CD102/ICAM-2) is a cell surface glycoprotein that belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF) of adhesion molecules. Like CD54/ICAM-1, CD102/ICAM-2 is a ligand that binds the leukocyte adhesion molecule LFA-1 (leukocyte function-associated antigen-1), which mediates intercellular interactions between immune cells and other cell types. Expression of CD102/ICAM-2 has been shown to affect angiogenesis, cellular radioresistance and anti-tumor immune response. Along with CD54/ICAM-1, CD102/ICAM-2 mediates T cell crawling and diapedesis across the blood-brain barrier, as well as T cell migration across the bronchial epithelium. CD102/ICAM-2 interaction with the actin cytoskeleton through α-actinin has been shown to limit the mobility on neuroblastoma cells, and this effect is dependent on glycosylation of CD102/ICAM-2.
