General description
Cytokeratins are the intermediate filaments of endocrine cells. These proteins belong to the intermediate filament (10 nm) superfamily of cytoskeletal proteins. Cytokeratins are the largest and most complex group of intermediate filaments. The family consists of at least 30 proteins with molecular weights ranging from 40kDa to 68kDa.
Immunogen
keratin-enriched preparation from cultured human epidermoid carcinoma cell line A431.
Application
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.
Immunofluorescence (1 paper)
Immunohistochemistry (1 paper)
Monoclonal Anti-Cytokeratin, pan−FITC antibody has been used in immunocytochemistry and has also been used to visualize lung epithelial cells.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Cytokeratins helps in subtyping several kinds of epithelial differentiation or for narrowing possible sites of origin for metastatic carcinomas. Cytokeratins may play an important role in transhepatic transport and canalicular secretion.
