EGP40 is a 40-43kDa transmembrane epithelial glycoprotein, also identified as epithelial specific antigen (ESA), or epithelial cellular adhesion molecule (Ep-CAM). It is expressed on baso-lateral cell surface in most simple epithelia and a vast majority of carcinomas with the exception of adult squamous epithelium, hepatocytes and gastric epithelial cells. Ep-CAM antibody has been used to distinguish adenocarcinoma from pleural mesothelioma and hepatocellular carcinoma. Ep-CAM antibody is also useful in distinguishing serous carcinomas of the ovary from mesothelioma.
