Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-alpha smooth muscle Actin antibody [1A4] (AB7817)
Immunohistochemical analysis of formalin fixed paraffin embedded human colon labelling alpha smooth muscle actin with ab7817 at a concentration of 0.01 µg/ml. The immunostaining was performed on a Ventana DISCOVERY ULTRA (Roche Tissue Diagnostics) instrument with an OptiView DAB IHC Detection Kit. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was conducted for 32 mins at 100°C with ULTRA cell conditioning solution (CC1, pH 8.5). ab7817 anti-alpha smooth muscle actin antibody [1A4] was incubated at 37°C for 16 mins. Sections were counterstained with Hematoxylin II. Image inset shows absence of staining in secondary antibody only control.

Alpha-Smooth Muscle Actin (α-SMA) is a critical protein involved in smooth muscle contraction, encoded by the ACTA2 gene. Predominantly found in vascular smooth muscle cells, α-SMA plays a vital role in fibrogenesis and wound healing. It is often used as a marker for myofibroblast formation, which are specialized cells that contribute to tissue repair and fibrosis. The expression of α-SMA is associated with the activation of myofibroblasts, making it an important indicator in studies of fibrosis and other related conditions.

Biological function summary
The actin family of proteins including alpha smooth muscle Actin facilitate cellular movements and structural integrity. It is vital in cellular contraction and is a part of the actin-myosin complex which enables muscle cells to contract. Alpha smooth muscle Actin also participates in cell adhesion and morphology influencing the mechanical properties of tissues. Its expression indicates differentiation of smooth muscle tissue and can act as a marker for fibroblast to myofibroblast transformation often used in alpha sma staining.
Pathways
The regulation of alpha smooth muscle Actin expression serves a definitive role in the TGF-beta signaling pathway which influences cell migration proliferation and differentiation. This protein interacts with other actin isoforms and cytoskeletal components to modulate cellular responses to stimuli. Additionally it connects with proteins like caldesmon and tropomyosin during muscle contraction helping stabilize actin filaments within smooth muscle cells.
