View Frank Gaillard's current disclosuresNeuronal nuclear antigen (NeuN) is a protein expressed in mature (post-mitotic) neurons and is commonly used as an immunohistochemical target to identify neuronal differentiation (e.g. in ganglioglioma and gangliocytomas).
It is primarily expressed in the nuclei of neurons with less pronounced expression in the cytoplasm and dendrites and axons 1.
