Actin Alpha (ACTA) Antibody is a Mouse Monoclonal antibody against alpha smooth muscle actin. Actins are highly conserved proteins that play a role in cell contractile activity, motility, cytokinesis, and in maintaining cell structure. Alpha smooth muscle actin is expressed in vascular smooth muscle, myofibroblasts and myoepithelial cells and also in tumours derived from these cells.
