SMAD5 [3H9]
Description SMAD5, MAD homolog 5, Mothers against DPP homolog 5, JV5-1, SMAD family member 5 encoded by the gene named SMAD5 or MADH5 is a transcriptional cofactor activated by BMP type 1 receptor kinase and like other SMAD family members SMAD5 belongs to the larger TGFbeta superfamily of signaling modulators. SMAD5 forms complexes with SMAD4 when phosphorylated by BMPR1 and migrates to the nucleus. In the absence of phosphorylation SMAD5 is cytoplasmically localized. SMAD5 levels are regulated via ubiquitin mediated proteolysis facilitated by the E3 ligase SMURF1. SMAD5 is involved in many developmental pathways including in hematopoietic cells where SMAD5 activity is involved in the inhibition of the proliferation of hematopoietic progenitor cells. More recent research has shown SMAD5 to be involved in many other pathways too, for instance homozygous mutants die early in development and display a variable phenotype. Moreover SMAD5 is critical for proper granule cell development in the cerebellum Host Mouse Application Flow cytometry (FC), Immunocytochemistry (ICC),Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Western Blot (WB) Reactivity Human, Rat -
Smoothelin [R4A]
Description Smoothelin is a constituent of the smooth muscle cell cytoskeleton protein exclusively found in differentiated smooth muscle cells (SMC). Cells with SMC-like characteristics, such as myofibroblasts and myoepithelial cells, as well as skeletal and cardiac muscle do not contain smoothelin. Distinguishing between bladder muscularis mucosae (MM) and muscularis propria (MP) muscle bundles is crucial for accurate staging of bladder carcinoma. Strong smoothelin expression is nearly exclusively observed in muscularis propria. The staining pattern of MP (strongly positive) and MM (negative or weakly positive) makes this technique an attractive diagnostic tool for the sometimes difficult task of staging bladder urothelial carcinoma, such as in transurethral resection specimens of urinary bladder tumors. Differentiating between smooth muscle tumors and other mesenchymal neoplasms of the GI tract can be challenging in small biopsies. Anti-smoothelin immunostaining can be helpful in differentiating Host Mouse Application Immunocytochemistry (ICC),Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunoprecipitation (IP), Western Blot (WB) Reactivity Human, Mouse, Rat, Chicken -

Somatostatin [H11]
Description Somatostatin is a peptide hormone that regulates the endocrine system and affects neurotransmission and cell proliferation via interaction with G-protein-coupled somatostatin receptors and inhibition of the release of numerous secondary hormones. This hormone has two active forms produced by alternative cleavage of a single preproprotein: somatostatin-14, composed of 14 amino acids and somatostatin-28, a prohormone composed of 28 residues. Somatostatin is secreted by D-cells of the islets of Langerhans in pancreas, endocrine cells of the gastrointestinal tract, bronchopulmonary system, thymus, and C cells of the thyroid. Somatostatin positive cells may also be present in medullary thyroid carcinomas, C cell hyperplasia, thymic tumors and pulmonary small cell carcinomas. An antibody to Somatostatin can be used to identify pancreatic islet cell hyperplasia as well as islet cell tumors, such as somatostatinomas.

SOX10 [MD198R]
Description SOX10 is a member of the SRY-related HMG-box (SOX) family of transcription factors involved in the regulation of embryonic development and in the determination of cell fate. During development, SOX10 first appears in the forming neural crest and continues to be expressed in Schwann cells. It is important for differentiation, maturation and maintenance of Schwann cells and melanocytes. In normal tissues, SOX10 is expressed in Schwann cells and glial cells in the nervous system. It is also detected in melanocytes and epithelial cells of salivary gland and mammary gland. In tumor tissues, SOX10 labels melanoma and tumors of neural crest origin. A recent study reported the expression of SOX10 in basal-like, unclassified triple-negative breast carcinoma. Thus, breast carcinoma must be considered in the differential diagnosis of melanoma for a SOX10-positive metastatic malignant neoplasm.
