[rat neural antigen-2] This antigen is a glial cell lineage marker. It is expressed on the cell surface of astrocytes, ependymal cells, Müller cells, and leptomeninges (Bartlett et al, 1981). Mirsky and Jessen (1983-1984) have reported expression of the Ran-2 antigen on non-myelin-forming Schwann cells, but not myelin-forming Schwann cells.
Salzer et al (1998) have identified the Ran-2 antigen expressed on astrocytes and Schwann cells as a GPI-anchored form of ceruloplasmin.
