SSEA-3 Antibody (3H420) is a rat monoclonal IgM antibody that detects SSEA-3 in mouse, rat, and human samples through immunofluorescence (IF) applications. SSEA-3, or Stage Specific Embryonic Antigen-3, plays a crucial role in identifying and characterizing undifferentiated embryonic stem cells and embryonal carcinoma cells, serving as a marker for pluripotency. This glycosylated protein is primarily located on the cell surface, where SSEA-3 is involved in cell-cell interactions and signaling pathways that maintain the undifferentiated state of stem cells. SSEA-3 expression helps distinguish between different stages of cell differentiation, providing insights into developmental biology and potential therapeutic applications in regenerative medicine. SSEA-3 interacts with other proteins involved in stem cell maintenance and differentiation, further underscoring SSEA-3′s significance in stem cell research. Anti-SSEA-3 antibody (3H420) is an essential tool for researchers studying stem cell biology, enabling the visualization and analysis of SSEA-3 expression in various cellular contexts.
