Description
Details
Stage-specific embryonic antigen-1 (SSEA-1) is a carbohydrate epitope expressed upon the surface of early mouse embryos, murine embryonal carcinoma (EC), murine embryonic stem (ES), and murine and human germ (EG) cells. No immunoreactivity is evident with undifferentiated human EC and ES cells. Differentiation of human EC results in an increase in SSEA-1 expression, while in the mouse expression is diminished. SSEA-1 is associated with cell adhesion, migration and differentiation.
Sample Data
Figure A: FC analysis of SSEA-1 Antibody on mouse ES cells at a 1:100 dilution. Green histogram represents SSEA-1 Antibody and open histogram represents isotype control. A PE-conjugated anti-Mouse IgM was used as the secondary antibody. Figure B: ICC analysis on mouse ES cells. Cells were stained with SSEA-1 Antibody at a 1:100 dilution followed by an Alexa Fluor 594-conjugated secondary antibody (red). Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue).
