Further Information

Applications Description:
The 10C2 nestin antibody is useful for immunocytochemistry on fixed cells, immunohistochemistry on frozen and paraffin-embedded tissues, and Western blotting. Optimal antibody dilution should be determined by titration; recommended range is 1:100 to 1:200 for immunocytochemistry and immunohistochemistry with a fluorescein or rhodamine conjugated anti-mouse secondary antibody, and 1:1000 to 1:5000 for Western blot applications using chemoluminescent detection.
Background:
Nestin is a class IV intermediate filament protein abundantly produced in the developing central nervous system (CNS) and in early embryonic neuroepithelial stem cells. This cytoskeletal protein has been widely used as a predominant marker for stem/progenitor cells, glioma cells, and tumor endothelial cells. Also, it is a superior angiogenic marker to evaluate neovascularity of endothelial cells in tumors. This highly specific antibody to human nestin can aid in characterizing progenitor cells differentiating into distinct lineages, in enhancing the therapeutic potential of human neural stem/progenitor cells in the treatment of CNS diseases or injury, and in identifying neuroepithelial tumor cells.
Caution:
This product is intended FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY, and FOR TESTS IN VITRO, not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures involving humans or animals.
This product contains sodium azide. To prevent formation of toxic vapors, do not mix with strong acidic solutions. To prevent formation of potentially explosive metallic azides in metal plumbing, always wash into drain with copious quantities of water.

Source:
Monoclonal antibody 10C2 was derived by fusion of P3x63Ag8.653 myeloma cells with spleen cells from a BALB/c mouse immunized with a 150-amino-acid fragment from the cloned human nestin, conjugated to glutathione S-transferase.
Specificity:
Antibody 10C2 is specific for nestin and suitable for immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry on frozen and paraffin-embedded tissues.
