Coronin 1a/p57

Immunocytochemistry of a mixed neuron/glial culture from newborn rat brain stained with Coronin 1a (green) at a dilution of 1:10,000 and chicken polyclonal Vimentin (1:5,000). Blue is nuclear DNA counter stain. Glial cells and fibroblasts stain with vimentin, while microglia alone stain strongly and specifically for Coronin 1a, which can therefore be used as a robust marker of this important cell type.

Western blot of HL60 Cell extract stained with Coronin 1a, at dilution of 1:10,000. A prominent band running with an apparent SDS-PAGE molecular weight of ~57kDa corresponds to Coronin 1a. Numbers represent positions of molecular weight standards in kDa.
