This antibody reacts with many types of smooth muscle cells, such as those present in vascular walls, intestinal muscularis mucosae and propria, myometrium, stroma of various tissues, and is also positive for myoepithelial cells of various glands, notably salivary and mammary gland. Myogenic soft tissues detected include leiomyosarcomas, leiomyomas, and certain stromal cells surrounding infiltrating ductal carcinoma of the breast.
