CD34 581/CD34 Human FITC Stem cell marker (precursor), also found in hematopoietic progenitor cells, vascular endothelium, and fibroblasts of the same tissue. Probably, it works as a transduction signer and has a function in endothelium specific antigen adhesion.

CD45 (common leukocyte antigen)HI30 Human PE Leukocytes marker. CD45 proteins are located in all hematopoietic cells, but not in erythrocytes.

CD49d (integrin α4)9F10 Human PE Transmembrane glycoprotein, integrin α4. It makes several cell-cell interaction and cell-matrix and participated in cellular adhesion.

CD73 (ecto-5′-nucleotidase)AD2 Human PE It have been suggested that this marker can mediate costimulator signals in the cells T activation and endothelium as well catalyses the dephosphorylation of adenosine monophosphate in adenosine.

CD90 (THy-1)5E10 Human FITC The role of interaction in cell-cell and cell-matrix has been speculated, with related neurites growth, nerve regeneration, apoptosis, metaphase, inflammation, and fibrosis.

CD105 (endoglin)266 HumanPurified Responsiveness modulator of TGF-β cellular complex.
