Abstract excerpt

We have used the monoclonal antibody A2B5 (which binds to subclasses of surface gangliosides) to select glial precursor cells from postnatal rat brain and compare their properties in culture with those of the bipotential O-2A progenitor cells of newborn optic nerve. Two methods, fluorescence-acti...
