Part Descriptions
LP14639-6 Actin
Actin is a protein found in all eukaryotic cells. It is the monomeric subunit of two types of filaments in cells: microfilaments and thin filaments. There are three main groups of actin isoforms - alpha, beta, and gamma. The alpha actins are found in muscle tissues and contribute to muscle contraction. The beta and gamma actins exist in most cell types as components of the cytoskeleton and contribute to cell shape, motility and division. Actin is primarily measured to determine the effects of proteins and drugs on actin polymerization and depolymerization and has been shown to be a host factor for HIV-1 infection.

LP36959-2 Actin Ab
Anti-actin antibodies are found at increased frequency in certain autoimmune diseases and may be of some diagnostic value.
In coeliac disease anti-actin antibodies correlated with the level of intestinal damage.
In autoimmune hepatitis anti-actin antibodies correlate with patterns of immune recognition, the pattern of recognition was specific to a small percentage of auto-immune hepatitis type 1 or cryptogenic hepatitis patients.
In gastric cancer anti-actin antibodies were elevated, along with other antibodies in severe disease with poor outcomes.
