SSEA-4 hexaose

Stage-Specific Embryonic Antigen-4 hexaose

SSEA-4 hexaose is a carbohydrate epitope that functions as a marker for certain stem cells and some types of cancer cells. It is a key part of the SSEA-4 antigen, which is a crucial marker used in the characterization and isolation of human pluripotent stem cells. This compound is used in research to study stem cell biology and cancer progression.
