The **ACTA2 antibody** targets α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), a protein encoded by the *ACTA2* gene. α-SMA is a cytoskeletal protein predominantly expressed in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), myofibroblasts, and certain contractile cells, playing a critical role in cell motility, structure, and tissue contraction. It is a marker of smooth muscle differentiation and is widely used to identify cells with contractile properties in physiological and pathological contexts.
ACTA2 antibodies are essential tools in research and diagnostics. In research, they help study vascular development, wound healing, fibrosis, and diseases involving smooth muscle dysfunction, such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, and aortic aneurysms. In cancer biology, α-SMA expression is linked to cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), aiding tumor stroma analysis. Diagnostically, ACTA2 antibodies assist in identifying smooth muscle-derived tumors (e.g., leiomyosarcoma) and assessing fibrotic disorders (e.g., liver cirrhosis, pulmonary fibrosis).
Mutations in *ACTA2* are associated with familial thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections (TAAD), making these antibodies valuable for studying genetic vascular pathologies. Detection methods like immunohistochemistry (IHC), immunofluorescence (IF), and Western blot rely on ACTA2 antibodies to visualize α-SMA distribution and expression levels. Their specificity and utility in both basic and clinical settings underscore their importance in understanding tissue remodeling and disease mechanisms.
