This antibody portfolio includes a wide range of tissue- & tumor-specific primary antibodies for basic research, product development and analysis of a variety of biological questions. The monoclonal antibodies are perfectly applicable for all cell or tissue biology studies and for the analysis of predictive markers in research.
1A4/ASM-1 represents an excellent marker for myogenic soft tissue tumors and smooth muscle differentiation. Polypeptide reacting: specific for alpha-smooth-muscle isoform of actin (43 kDa). Tumors specificallly detected: leiomyosarcoma, leiomyoma, certain stromal cells surrounding infiltrating ductal carcinoma of breast. Tested cultured cell lines: stress fibers of smooth muscle-derived cells and some smooth muscle subtype fibroblasts.
