bHLHc1, Class C basic helix-loop-helix protein 1, Myoblast determination protein 1, Myogenic differentiation 1, Myogenic factor 3 (Myf-3), Myogenin D1, PUM
Recognizes a phospho-protein of 45kDa, identified as MyoD1. This MAb does not cross react with myogenin, Myf5, or Myf6. Antibody to MyoD1 labels the nuclei of myoblasts in developing muscle tissues. MyoD1 is not detected in normal adult tissue, but is highly expressed in the tumor cell nuclei of rhabdomyosarcomas. Occasionally nuclear expression of MyoD1 is seen in ectomesenchymoma and a subset of Wilm s tumors. Weak cytoplasmic staining is observed in several non-muscle tissues, including glandular epithelium and also in rhabdomyosarcomas, neuroblastomas, Ewing s sarcomas and alveolar soft part sarcomas. Only nuclear staining should be considered as evidence of skeletal muscle differentiation.
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed) (1-2µg/ml for 30 minutes at RT),(Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires heating tissue sections in 10mM Tris with 1mM EDTA, pH 9.0, for 45 min at 95 &degC followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes),
