Alpha skeletal muscle actin (α-SMA), encoded by the *ACTA1* gene, is a key contractile protein predominantly expressed in skeletal muscle cells. As a member of the actin family, it forms thin filaments that interact with myosin to enable muscle contraction. This isoform is developmentally regulated, with expression increasing during myogenesis and maintaining high levels in adult skeletal muscle. Antibodies targeting α-SMA are widely used to study skeletal muscle biology, regeneration, and diseases like muscular dystrophy or myopathies.
In research, α-SMA antibodies help identify skeletal muscle cells in vitro or in tissue sections, track differentiation, and assess muscle integrity in injury models. Clinically, they aid in diagnosing skeletal muscle-derived tumors (e.g., rhabdomyosarcoma) by distinguishing them from other neoplasms. However, caution is needed since α-SMA is also transiently expressed in smooth muscle cells (e.g., vascular smooth muscle) and myofibroblasts during fibrosis, requiring validation with additional markers (e.g., desmin) for specificity.
Available as monoclonal or polyclonal formats, these antibodies are optimized for techniques like immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, and Western blot. Proper tissue fixation and antigen retrieval protocols are critical for reliable detection. Commercial antibodies often cite reactivity across species (human, mouse, rat), but validation in specific experimental contexts remains essential. Overall, α-SMA antibodies are indispensable tools for advancing both basic muscle research and clinical diagnostics.
