General Notes
Rat anti Mouse CD31 antibody, clone ER-MP12 recognizes mouse CD31, a 140 kDa cell surface glycoprotein expressed at high levels on endothelial cells, platelets and most leukocyte subpopulations.CD31 is also expressed on a major population of macrophage / dendritic cell precursors in the bone marrow. Rat anti Mouse CD31 antibody, clone ER-MP12 can be used in conjunction with clone ER-MP20 (MCA2389GA) in two colour flow cytometric analysis, to identify different stages of myeloid progenitor cells in mouse bone marrow (de Bruijn et al. 1998).
