Oligodendrocytes are myelinating cells in the central nervous system (CNS) and form the myelin sheath of axons to support rapid nerve conduction. Oligodendrocyte Marker O4 is an antigen on the surface of oligodendrocyte progenitors (1, 2). It has been commonly used as the earliest recognized marker specific for the oligodendroglial lineage (3-8).

Detection of Oligodendrocyte Marker O4 in Differentiated Rat Cortical Stem Cells by Flow Cytometry.
Rat cortical stem cells (Catalog # NSC001) either differentiated (filled histogram) or undifferentiated (open histogram) were stained with Mouse Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat/Chicken Oligodendrocyte Marker O4 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB1326), followed by PE-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgM Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0116). View our protocol for Staining Membrane-associated Proteins.Oligodendrocyte Marker O4 in Differentiated Rat Cortical Stem Cells.
Oligodendrocyte Marker O4 was detected in immersion fixed differentiated rat cortical stem cells using 1 µg/mL Mouse Anti-Human/Mouse/ Rat/Chicken Oligodendrocyte Marker O4 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB1326) for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained (red). View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Cells on Coverslips.Olig2 and Oligodendrocyte Marker O4 in Rat Cortical Stem Cells.
Olig2 and Oligodendrocyte Marker O4 were detected in 7 day differentiated rat cortical stem cells using 10 µg/mL Human Olig2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF2418) and 10 µg/mL Mouse Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat/Chicken O4 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB1326). Cells were incubated with primary antibodies for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained for Olig2 using the NorthernLights™ 637-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL002), and stained for O4 using an anti-mouse IgM secondary antibody (pseudo-stained green).
