This antibody recognises the ovine CD44 cell surface antigen, a ~95 kDa glycoprotein expressed by most leucocytes and a subpopulation of thymocytes. In immunohistochemical staining, this antibody labels several cell types including medullary thymocytes, kupffer cells, kidney tubular epithelial cells and gut smooth muscle cells. The expression of CD44 is upregulated upon cell activation. Mouse anti Sheep CD44 antibody, clone 25.32 is a valuable ragent for the isolation and characterization of ovine mesenchymal stem cells along with CD29 and CD166 which are also expressed on this cell type, in contrast to hematopoietic sell markers including CD45 which is negative on this mesenchymal stem sell population (Sanjurjo-Rodríguez et al. 2017).
