4 Cytokeratin 7 and 20 Agnieszka
Cytokeratins (CK or CKs) are the largest complex group of IF proteins. These are proteins, that are crucial in the development and differentiation of epithelial cells, as well as essential for normal tissue structure and function. The first keratin protein nomenclature was published by Moll et al. (1982) and it has been repeatedly updated in recent years (Schweizer et al., 2006). Based on the r...
متن کاملIdentification of relevant prognostic values of cytokeratin 20 and cytokeratin 7 expressions in lung cancer
Lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors harmful to human health. Cytokeratin (CK) is highly conserved and differentiated related to the proliferation and differentiation of epithelial cells. The aim of the study was to explore expressions of CK20 and CK7 and corresponding prognostic values in patients with lung cancer. Our study included 258 cases of patients confirmed with lung ...
متن کاملCytokeratin 7-positive/cytokeratin 20-negative cecal adenocarcinoma metastatic to the uterine cervix: a case report
BACKGROUND The vast majority of uterine cervical malignancies are primary carcinomas, and secondary neoplasms that metastasize to the uterine cervix from a distant organ are uncommon. Although relatively rare, metastases to the uterine cervix from a primary colon cancer have been reported. We report a rare case of metastatic carcinoma originating from a cecal adenocarcinoma with an unusual cyto...
متن کاملExpression of Cytokeratin 19 in the epithelial cell of Azo-exposed buccal mucosa
Background: Azo is a synthetic dye used in batik industries. It can be toxic to the tissue when exposed via inhalation, swallowing, or direct contact. Expression of cytokeratin will change in hyperplastic and cancer of the oral mucosa. Expression of Cytokeratin 8, 18, 19 is strong in the epithelial cells that undergo excessive hyperproliferation and oral mucosal changes in le...
متن کاملInterspecies variations in oral epithelial cytokeratin expression.
The aim of this study was to determine the degree to which the epidermis and oral epithelium of species other than man express cytokeratin (CK) intermediate filaments, which are markers of epithelial differentiation. Fixed, wax-embedded samples of skin, buccal mucosa and gingiva from rhesus monkey, marmoset, cow, sheep, pig, ferret, hamster, axolotl and trout were tested for CK expression using...
