Can you suggest reliable MEF markers for immunofluorescence analysis?

14 September 2020 0 6K Report

Hi everyone. I started working with mouse embryonic fibroblasts, and I want to check what population of cells I am working with by IF. Do you have experience with any specific markers? I came across those in literature: PGP-1, SELP, THY1.1/2, FAS, ALCAM and SCA-1. I see some people also use vimentin, S100A4/FSP1... What is your experience? Any suggestions?

Thank you!
