Keratins are proteins that form intermediate filaments of epithelial cell cytoskeleton. The
utility of keratin expression determination is based on the fact that epithelial cells acquire a …

Keratins, formerly known as cytokeratins, are the major epithelial‐specific subgroup of
intermediate filament proteins. Adult hepatocytes express keratin polypeptides 8 and 18 …

A large part of the cytoplasm of the cells consists of components forming cytoskeleton. The
constituents of the cytoskeleton in epithelial cells are actin-containing microfilaments, tubulin …

The mammalian cell cytoskeleton consists of a diverse group of fibrillar elements that play a
pivotal role in mediating a number of digestive and nondigestive cell functions, including …

Keratins are the largest subgroup of intermediate filament proteins, which are an important
constituent of the cellular cytoskeleton. The principally expressed keratins (K) of the …

Cytokeratins are particularly versatile tools in tumor biology both experimentally and
clinically. Previously regarded as a rigid intracellular skeleton, the cytokeratins are now …

Keratin intermediate filament proteins are major cytoskeletal components of the mammalian
simple layered columnar epithelium in the gastrointestinal tract. Human colon crypt epithelial …

The intermediate filament cytoskeleton of liver parenchymal and bile duct cells has only
fairly recently become a focus of interest. This review starts with a brief discussion of the …

Abstract Background/Aims: Keratin is a member of the intermediate filament family in
epithelial cells. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of different epithelial cells has shown …
