Background

Myosin-11 also called smooth muscle myosin heavy chain or SMMHC is a myosin expressed in smooth muscle that functions as a primary contractile protein. Myosin-11 is a common myoepithelial marker in immunohistochemistry, showing cytoplasmic and membranous positivity in myoepithelial and smooth muscle cells. It tends to provide more sensitive results with less myofibroblast cross-reactivity when compared to biomarkers like calponin and smooth muscle actin (1). Four Myosin-11 isoforms exist as a result of alternative splicing of the mRNA product of a single gene (2- 5).
