We are currently trying to phenotype the expression of a cell-adhesion molecule in Schwann cells and we would like to assess if there is differential expression of this molecule in myelinated and unmyelinted nerve fibers. We would like to do it (among other things) by immunohistochemsitry in adult nerves to check the expression of this molecule, the location and the interaction with the axon. Which marker would it be best to identify unmyelinating Schwann cells by IHC?
Thank you very much
