Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody to Nestin

May help to regulate cell structure and intracellular processes required for neural cell division and migration. Upon maturation of the brain, nestin expression is quickly down~regulated and replaced by expression of the neurofilament proteins. Because nestin is expressed in both mature and precursor neuronal and glial cells, as well as in the developing brain and in the brain and spinal cord following damage, nestin is widely accepted as a marker of neural stem/progenitor cells.
