  IF Staining of mouse embryo using 80008-1-RR

  E14.5 FFPE mouse embryo section stained for smooth muscle actin (red, Cat. No 80008-1-RR) and alpha tubulin (green, Cat. CL488-66031). The alpha tubulin was conjugated to CoraLite-488 fluorescent dye. In red, you can see muscle tissue clearly stained including the tongue, heart, and arteries. Nerves and neurons are stained green since they are rich in tubulin. Image credit: @Immunofluorescence on Instagram

Background Information

ACTA2 (also known as α-smooth muscle actin or α-SMA) belongs to the actin family. Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in various types of cell motility and are ubiquitously expressed in all eukaryotic cells. ACTA2 is primarily expressed in vascular smooth muscle and anti-ACTA2 is commonly used to marker smooth muscle cells.
