Desmin is a class-III intermediate filament protein expressed on smooth, skeletal and cardiac muscle cells. In adult striated muscle they form a fibrous network connecting myofibrils to each other and to the plasma membrane from the periphery of the Z-line structures. Desmin is useful in diagnosis of tumor with myoid origin. It can also be used to differentiate mesothelioma from carcinoma.
