General description

Smooth Muscle Actin is a part of the actin family of proteins which are highly conserved andform microfilaments. These filaments are one of the major components of the cytoskeleton.Anti-smooth muscle actin immunohistochemical reactivity is seen in smooth muscle cells,myofibroblasts, and myoepithelial cells.

The diagnosis of low-grade and pseudosarcomatous spindle cell lesions of skin and soft tissue can sometimes be problematic; in particular, distinction between fibroblastic, myofibroblastic, and smooth muscle proliferations can occasionally pose difficulties on routine histologic examination. We have applied a

Changes of actin isomers during development and differentiation of chicken gizzard were investigated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The two-dimensional gel electrophoresis with SDS-polyacrylamide gels in the presence of urea as the second dimension clearly separated three actin isomers which appear

There are three classes of myofilaments in vertebrate smooth muscle fibers. The thin filaments correspond to actin and the thick filaments are identified with myosin. The third class of myofilaments (100 A diam) is distinguished from both the actin and

A monoclonal antibody (anti-alpha sm-1) recognizing exclusively alpha-smooth muscle actin was selected and characterized after immunization of BALB/c mice with the NH2-terminal synthetic decapeptide of alpha-smooth muscle actin coupled to keyhole limpet hemocyanin. Anti-alpha sm-1 helped in distinguishing smooth muscle
