Use an antibody against smooth muscle actin.  You don't even need to do
pretreatment with this antibody.

Subject: [Histonet] Myofibroblasts VS Fibrobalsts

Hello Histonetters!
I was wondering does anyone know a good way to differentiate between
human myofibroblasts and fibroblasts. Is there a specific stain or an
antibody for IHC???
Thank you in advance.
