Anti-α-SMA Antibody

This mouse monoclonal reagent from Antibodies.com targets alpha smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), a cytoskeletal protein widely used as a marker for myofibroblasts, vascular smooth muscle cells, and activated hepatic stellate cells.

Supplied as a 100 µl unconjugated preparation, the antibody is validated for Western blot and immunohistochemistry workflows, with reactivity confirmed against Human, Mouse, and Rat samples.

Researchers in fibrosis, wound healing, vascular biology, and tumor stroma studies routinely apply α-SMA antibodies to characterize mesenchymal cell populations and to monitor epithelial-mesenchymal transition in tissue sections and lysates.

The unconjugated format gives flexibility to pair the antibody with user-defined secondary reagents and detection chemistries, including HRP, fluorophore, or chromogen systems. Refrigerated storage between uses preserves reagent activity for ongoing experimental campaigns.
