General description
Cytokeratin is a 52.5kD cytoplasmic structural protein that belongs to type II, neutral-to-basic subfamily. It consists of 29 different proteins which is the characteristic of epithelial and trichocytic cells. Monoclonal anti-cytokeratin peptide 8 antibody can be used as a marker for epithelial cell differentiation as well as a tool for tumor identification and classification. It can also be used in western blotting. Mouse anti-cytokeratin peptide 8 antibody reacts specifically with various human simple and complex epithelia like- liver, intestine, pancreas, urinary bladder, salivary gland, thyroid, prostate, mesothel, and placenta but not with stratified squamous epithelia. The product also does not react with non-epithelial tissues (exceptions-certain smooth muscle cells). This product has also shown cross reactivity for cytokeratin of rabbit, cow, dog, and cat.Monoclonal Anti-Cytokeratin 8 (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the M20 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with a cytokeratin preparation purified from the human breast carcinoma cell line MCF7.

The development of genomic instability is an important step toward generating the multiple genetic changes required for cancer. Telomere dysfunction is one of the factors that contribute to tumorigenesis. Telomeres shorten with each cell division in the absence of telomerase.

Tissues from human fetuses (12 to 14 weeks) were studied by using immunohistochemical methods, with special emphasis on coexpression of intermediate filaments. Well-characterized antibodies, monoclonal as well as polyclonal were used. Indirect immunoperoxidase staining disclosed simultaneous expression of cytokeratin and

In the MCF7 human breast cancer cell line, several patterns of cytokeratin networks are observed, depending on the intracellular localization. Our hypothesis is that architectural variations of cytokeratin networks depend on local tensions or forces appearing spontaneously in the cytoplasm.

The correct functioning of hepatocytes requires the establishment and maintenance of hepatocyte polarity. However, the mechanisms regulating the generation of hepatocyte polarity are not completely understood. The differentiation of human fetal hepatic progenitor cells (hFHPCs) into functional hepatocytes provides a
