Anti-alpha smooth muscle Actin antibody [EPR5368] (ab124964) specifically detects alpha smooth muscle Actin (UniProt ID: P62736; Molecular weight: 42kDa) and is sold in 100 µL and 1 mL selling sizes. Conjugation-ready, carrier free format available for antibody clone EPR5368 - ab220795 . Antibody clone EPR5368 is also available pre-conjugated to a variety of labels for your convenience - Alexa Fluor ® 488, Alexa Fluor ® 647, Alexa Fluor ® 555, Alexa Fluor ® 594, PE, APC ( ab202295 , ab202296 , ab202509 , ab202510 , ab208844 , ab225143 ). 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.
