Anti-PSA-NCAM
Overview
The Anti-PSA-NCAM antibodies can be used for the identification and enumeration of human, mouse, and rat PSA-NCAM+ cells by flow cytometry, fluorescence microscopy, or immunohistochemistry.

Background information
Anti-PSA-NCAM MicroBeads recognize polysialic acid (PSA), which is linked to the extracellular domain of the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM, CD56).1 PSA-NCAM, the highly polysialated form of NCAM, is predominantly expressed in embryonic and neonatal neural tissue.2 In adult mammalian brain PSA-NCAM expression is restricted mainly to areas that retain neurogenic potential, such as the subventricular zone (SVZ)3 and the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus.4 PSA-NCAM is a marker for immature neuronal-committed progenitors that are permanently generated in the SVZ and migrate along a well-defined pathway, the rostral migratory stream, into the olfactory bulb where they differentiate into GABAergic and dopaminergic interneurons.3,5 PSA-NCAM positive neuronal precursors have been isolated from rat forebrain and from mouse SVZ tissue in conjunction with prior depletion of A2B5+ glial progenitor cells.6-10

Figure 1
Mouse brain tissue postnatal day 1 was dissociated using the Neural Tissue Dissociation Kit (T). Brain cells were stained with Anti-PSA-NCAM-PE (A) or Anti-PSA-NCAM-APC (B). Cells were analyzed by flow cytometry.
