Background

Monoclonal anti cytokeratins are specific markers of epithelial cell differentiation and have been widely used as tools in tumor identification and classification. Monoclonal Anti Pan Cytokeratin (mixture) is a broadly reactive reagent, which recognizes epitopes present in most human epithelial tissues.

Tissue Specificity

Expressed in cardiac and striated muscle. Expressed at Z-lines within the muscle fibers and at Z-line and M- line domains at costameres at the sarcolemmal membrane (at protein level) . Observed in coagulating gland, bladder, salivary gland, kidney, spleen, thymus, lung and heart. Also observed in ventral prostate, seminal vesicle and liver where expression increases following castration. .
