[Histonet] Alpha Smooth Muscle Actin in Xenografts

[Igor Deyneko]

Dear Histonetters!
I was wondering if anyone out there is working with xenograft tumor models
and knows of a good alpha smooth muscle actin antibody that will detect
mouse tissue but would give minimal background in tumor cells??? I have
tried 6 different ones, 3 from Biocare, 1 from Santa Cruz, and 2 from Abcam,
but they all gave me very strong backgrounds. Any information would be
greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
