... to assess whether they contain all the myelin-characteristic proteins, i.e., myelin basic protein, proteolipid protein, 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphodiesterase and myelin-associated glycoprotein. We have used antibodies against these proteins as immunocytochemical probes in conjunction...

... photoreceptors dramatically increases, using the antibodies rho4D2 and CERN901 (both specific for rods) and CERN906 (specific for red/green cones). These findings show that glycoproteins exhibiting fucose in α(1–6)-linkage are involved in processes determining retinal cell fate, strongly shifting the relative...

...Satoshi Ishii; Joseph J. Volpe Primary cultures of cerebral glia derived from neonatal rat brain were utilized to determine whether specific glycoproteins are involved in oligodendroglial and astrocytic differentiation. Specific emphasis was placed on the oligosaccharide portion of glycoproteins...

... with iodinated CSL indicated that endogenous glycoprotein ligands for CSL are present in the culture, rendering probable the hypothesis that cell contacts between different oligodendrocytes or between adjacent lamellae in myelin are mediated by lectin-glycoprotein interactions. This hypothesis was demonstrated...
