Description

Description: Along with the microfilaments (actins) and microtubules (tubulins), the intermediate filaments represent a third class of well-characterized cytoskeletal elements. The subunits display a tissue-specific pattern of expression. Desmin (MIM 125660) is the subunit specific for muscle and vimentin the subunit specific for mesenchymal tissue.[supplied by OMIM]

Short Description

Vimentin antibody detects vimentin, a type III intermediate filament protein with a predicted molecular weight of 54 kDa. Vimentin is highly expressed in cells of mesodermal origin as well as in some ectodermal cells, and is often used as a marker of mesenchymal stem cells. It is also utilized in combination with E-cadherin to study the morphological and phenotypic changes in cells undergoing epithelial-mesenchymal transition during development and tumor metastasis. In addition, vimentin antibody is a valuable reagent to stain neuronal precursors and developing radial glia cells.

Storage Note

Store as concentrated solution. Centrifuge briefly prior to opening vial. For short-term storage (1-2 weeks), store at 4C. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20C or below. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
