α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) is a protein that is often associated with cancer progression. It is a key component of the actin cytoskeleton and plays a crucial role in cell migration, invasion, and contraction.
α-SMA is often expressed by cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), which are a type of stromal cell that surrounds the tumor. CAFs expressing α-SMA can promote tumor growth and metastasis.
High levels of α-SMA expression have been correlated with poor prognosis in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, and colorectal cancer.
