Description
OMA1-06020 detects smoothelin from human, canine, feline, porcine, chicken and monkey tissues. This antibody detects both the visceral and vascular smoothelin isoforms. Does not cross react with rat samples. OMA1-06020 has been successfully used in Western blot, immunocytochemistry, and immunohistochemistry procedures. By Western blot, this antibody detects an ~59 kDa protein representing visceral smoothelin and an ~100 kDa protein representing vascular smoothelin from canine smooth muscle extracts. This antibody can be used to discriminate fully differentiated (contractile) smooth muscle cells from proliferative smooth muscle cells. Staining of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues requires boiling in 10 mM citrate buffer (pH 6.0) for 3x5 min, prior to immunostaining. OMA1-06020 antigen is cytoskeletal smoothelin extract of chicken gizzard. Store at 4ºC, or in small aliquots at -20ºC.
