Background: NG2/MCSP

The clone 7.1 antibody recognizes a cell surface-expressed chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan that is the human homolog of rat NG2 antigen. The NG2 antigen, also known as chrondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 4, can be found on human glial cell population and is also expressed on myeloid and lymphoid cell subsets with chromosomal modifications.
