- This MAb reacts with a 58kDa protein identified as vimentin. It shows no cross-reaction with other closely related intermediate filament proteins (IFP's) such as desmin; keratin; neurofilament; and glial fibrillary acid protein.Anti-vimentin alone is of limited value as a diagnostic tool; however; when used in panels with other antibodies; it is useful for the sub-classification of a given tumor. Expression of vimentin; when used in conjunction with anti-keratin; is helpful when distinguishing melanomas from undifferentiated carcinomas and large cell lymphomas. All melanomas and Schwannomas react strongly with anti-vimentin. It labels a variety of mesenchymal cells; including melanocytes; lymphocytes; endothelial cells; and fibroblasts. Non-reactivity of anti-vimentin is often considered more useful than its positive reactivity; since there are a few tumors that do not contain vimentin; e.g. hepatoma and seminoma. Anti-vimentin is also useful as a tissue process control reagent.
