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.

SUMO-2/3 [SM23/496]
Description The small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO) proteins, which include SUMO-1, SUMO-2 and SUMO-3, belong to the ubiquitin-like protein family. Like ubiquitin, the SUMO proteins are synthesized as precursor proteins that undergo processing before conjugation to target proteins. Also, both utilize the E1, E2, and E3 cascade enzymes for conjugation. However, SUMO and ubiquitin differ with respect to targeting. Ubiquitination predominantly targets proteins for degradation, whereas sumoylation targets proteins to a variety of cellular processing including nuclear transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, and protein stability. The unconjugated SUMO-1 protein localizes to the nuclear membrane.

Superoxide Dismutase 1/SOD1 [MD11]
Description Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) or CuZn-SOD (SOD1), a cytoplasmic and mitochondrial intermembrane space protein is located on human chromosome 21q22. It belongs to superoxide dismutase multigene family. It binds copper and zinc ions and is one of two isozymes responsible for destroying free superoxide radicals in the body. This isozyme is a soluble cytoplasmic protein, acting as a homodimer to convert naturally-occuring but harmful superoxide radicals to molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide. The other isozyme is a mitochondrial protein. Mutations in this gene have been implicated as causes of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Rare transcript variants have been reported for this gene.
