Scientific Data Images for Mouse Sca-1/Ly6 Biotinylated Antibody

Sca-1/Ly6 antibody in Mouse Kidney by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-Fr).

Sca-1/Ly6 in Mouse Kidney.

Sca-1/Ly6 was detected in perfusion fixed frozen sections of mouse kidney using Mouse Sca-1/Ly6 Biotinylated Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # BAM1226) at 25 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Rat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS017) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue).

Sca-1/Ly6 antibody in Mouse Thymus by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-Fr).

Sca‑1/Ly6 in Mouse Thymus.

Sca-1/Ly6 was detected in perfusion fixed frozen sections of mouse thymus using Mouse Sca-1/Ly6 Biotinylated Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # BAM1226) at 25 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Rat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS017) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Lower panel shows a lack of labeling if primary antibodies are omitted and tissue is stained only with secondary antibody followed by incubation with detection reagents.

Background: Sca-1/Ly6

Sca-1 is an 18 kDa phosphatidylositol-anchored protein that is a member of the lymphocyte antigen 6 (Ly-6) family (1). Sca-1 is encoded by the strain-specific Ly-6 E/A allelic gene. Its expression on multipotent hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) has been used as a marker of HSC in mice of both Ly-6 haplotypes (2,3). Sca-1-positive HSC can be found in the adult bone marrow, fetal liver, and mobilized peripheral blood and spleen in the adult animal (2-7). However, Sca-1 has also been discovered in several non-hematopoietic tissues (1) and can be used to enrich progenitor cell populations other than HSC (8). It is suggested that Sca-1 could be involved in regulating both B and T cell activation (9-12).
