Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-smooth muscle Myosin heavy chain 11 antibody (AB125884)

IHC image of smooth muscle Myosin heavy chain 11 staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal human heart* performed on a Leica BOND™ system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20mins. The section was then incubated with ab125884, 1ug/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX. The inset secondary-only control image is taken from an identical assay without primary antibody.

For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.

Western blot - Anti-smooth muscle Myosin heavy chain 11 antibody (AB125884)

This blot was produced using a 3-8% Tris Acetate gel under the TA buffer system. The gel was run at 150V for 60 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 5% Bovine Serum Albumin before being incubated with ab125884 overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was detected using an anti-rabbit antibody conjugated to HRP, and visualised using ECL development solution.

Smooth muscle Myosin heavy chain 11 also known as MYH11 or myosin 11 is a protein that plays a mechanical role in muscle contraction. It forms part of the thick filament in smooth muscle cells. MYH11 has a molecular mass of approximately 227 kDa and is expressed in smooth muscle tissues including the walls of blood vessels the gastrointestinal tract and the respiratory system. As a member of the myosin heavy chain family it functions by interacting with actin filaments to facilitate contraction allowing for the maintenance and regulation of vascular tone and organ motility.
Biological function summary

Smooth muscle Myosin heavy chain 11 contributes to muscle function through its role within myofilament complexes. These complexes enable cells to achieve the force generation necessary for muscle contraction. MYH11 is critical to cytoskeletal maintenance and cell movement especially in the smooth muscles that line the visceral organs and blood vessels. Without proper functioning of MYH11 cells may lose structural stability and functionality leading to impaired muscle contraction and vessel elasticity.

Pathways

Smooth muscle Myosin heavy chain 11 engages intimately with signal transduction processes governing muscle contraction and relaxation. MYH11 acts in the RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway which is vital to the regulation of vascular smooth muscle contraction. Within this pathway MYH11 influences the activity of proteins like myosin light chain kinase and phosphatase. The protein also plays a role in actin-myosin complex dynamics through its interaction with cellular elements such as tropomyosin and caldesmon significantly impacting cellular processes like cell proliferation and migration.

Smooth muscle Myosin heavy chain 11 has significant correlations with conditions such as familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection types. Mutations or dysfunctions in MYH11 have a direct impact on the integrity of the aortic wall which can lead to these severe vascular conditions. Additionally MYH11 has associations with hypertension through its involvement in vascular tension regulation. The protein's malfunction may disturb its interactions with other myosin heavy chain family members exacerbating vascular risk factors.
