Reference: J:84372 Previtali SC, et al., Expression of laminin receptors in schwann cell differentiation: evidence for distinct roles. J Neurosci. 2003 Jul 2;23(13):5520-30
Assay type: Immunohistochemistry
MGI Accession ID: MGI:7524127
Gene symbol: Itgb4
Gene name: integrin beta 4
Antibody: anti-integrin beta4 (6945)
Assay notes: Multiple Itgb4 antibodies were described, but the one used in this assay was not detailed. Anti-integrin beta4 (beta4-cyto) MGI:7523081 or anti-integrin beta4 (346-11A) MGI:3694679 may have been used in this assay.
