The effects of interferon (IFN) on the expression of ICAM-1 in human melanoma cell lines and the shedding of ICAM-1 into spent media were investigated using an indirect binding assay and a double determinant immunoassay (DDIA). While IFN increased the level of expression of ICAM-1 on melanoma cell lines, the susceptibility to IFN differed according to cell line. The enhancing effect of IFN-gamma was concentration-dependent, and it exceeded those of IFN-alpha and IFN-beta. Shedding of ICAM-1 into spent media was detected effectively, and the results agreed well with the expression of ICAM-1 on melanoma cells. Immunostaining of the surgically removed melanoma lesions was positively correlated with the thickness of the primary lesion. The expression of ICAM-1 in primary melanoma lesions was inversely correlated with the disease-free interval. The circulating ICAM-1 with stage 4 melanoma patients significantly exceeded that of stage 1-3 melanoma patients. These observations suggest that ICAM-1 in its soluble form may play an important role in host immunities and may be useful in evaluating the prognosis of patients with melanoma.

D007372 Interferons Proteins secreted by vertebrate cells in response to a wide variety of inducers. They confer resistance against many different viruses, inhibit proliferation of normal and malignant cells, impede multiplication of intracellular parasites, enhance macrophage and granulocyte phagocytosis, augment natural killer cell activity, and show several other immunomodulatory functions. Interferon
D008545 Melanoma A malignant neoplasm derived from cells that are capable of forming melanin, which may occur in the skin of any part of the body, in the eye, or, rarely, in the mucous membranes of the genitalia, anus, oral cavity, or other sites. It occurs mostly in adults and may originate de novo or from a pigmented nevus or malignant lentigo. Melanomas frequently metastasize widely, and the regional lymph nodes, liver, lungs, and brain are likely to be involved. The incidence of malignant skin melanomas is rising rapidly in all parts of the world.

D011863 Radioimmunoassay Classic quantitative assay for detection of antigen-antibody reactions using a radioactively labeled substance (radioligand) either directly or indirectly to measure the binding of the unlabeled substance to a specific antibody or other receptor system. Non-immunogenic substances (e.g., haptens) can be measured if coupled to larger carrier proteins (e.g., bovine gamma-globulin or human serum albumin) capable of inducing antibody formation. Radioimmunoassays
D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
