Scientific Data Images for Mouse/Rat Nestin PE-conjugated Antibody

Detection of Nestin antibody in Mouse Cortical Stem Cells antibody by Flow Cytometry.

Detection of Nestin in Mouse Cortical Stem Cells by Flow Cytometry.

Mouse cortical stem cells were stained with Mouse Anti-Mouse/Rat Nestin PE-conjugated Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # IC2736P, filled histogram) or isotype control antibody (Catalog # IC003P, open histogram). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with Flow Cytometry Fixation Buffer (Catalog # FC004) and permeabilized with Flow Cytometry Permeabilization/Wash Buffer I (Catalog # FC005).

Background: Nestin

Nestin is a class VI intermediate filament protein (1,2) that is expressed in stem cells of the central nervous system (CNS) (3) but not in mature CNS cells.(4) Nestin expression is used extensively as a marker for CNS stem cells in the developing nervous system and in vitro cultured cells (5-10). Its transient expression is a critical step in the neural differentiation pathway.(2) Nestin is also expressed in non-neural stem cell populations, such as pancreatic islet progenitors (11-13) and hematopoietic progenitors (14). Over amino acids (aa) 544-820, rat Nestin shares 75% and 38% sequence identity with mouse and human Nestin, respectively.
