Description
Desmin (DES) is a subunit of intermediate filaments in muscles that controls sarcomere architecture. Mutations in desmin that result in excess aggregation of the protein throughout the cell are associated with cardiomyopathy and myofibrillar myopathy diseases. In immunohistochemistry, desmin is commonly used as a mesenchymal marker and is useful for confirming myogenic origin of tissues and distinguishing smooth muscle tumors (desmin positive) from GIST (desmin negative). It is also positive in reactive mesothelial cells, skeletal muscle tumors, leiomyomas and rhabdomyosarcomas.

Specificity
Cytoskeletal intermediate filaments (IFs) constitute a diverse group of proteins that are expressed in a highly tissue-specific manner. IFs are constructed from two-chain alpha-helical coiled-coil molecules arranged on an imperfect helical lattice, and have been widely used as markers for distinguishing individual cell types within a tissue and identifying the origins of metastatic tumors. Vimentin is an IF general marker of cells originating in the mesenchyme. Vimentin and Desmin, a related class III IF, are both expressed during skeletal muscle development. Desmin, a 469 amino acid protein found near the Z line in sarcomeres, is expressed more frequently in adult differentiated state tissues. Anti-desmin detects cells of normal smooth, skeletal, and cardiac muscles. Antibody reacts with leiomyomas, leiomyosarcoma, rhabdomyomas, rhabdomyosarcoma, and perivascular cells of glomus tumors of the skin.

Usage
Immunohistology (Formalin-fixed - 1-2 ug/ml for 30 minutes at RT - Staining of formalin-fixed tissues is enhanced by boiling tissue sections in 10 mM Tris with 1 mM EDTA, pH 9.0 for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes.) Optimal dilution for a specific application should be determined.
Presentation
10 mM PBS, 0.05% BSA, 0.05% Sodium Azide
Storage
Store at 2°C to 8°C for up to 2 years.
Restrictions
