Keratin 19 as a key molecule in progression of human hepatocellular carcinomas through invasion and angiogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2016
Keratin (K) 19-positive hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is well known to have a higher malignant potential than K19-negative HCC: However, the molecular mechanisms involved in K19-mediated progression of HCC remain unclear. We attempted to clarify whether K19 directly affects cell survival and invasiveness in association with cellular senescence or ...

Similarities in DSG1 and KRT3 Downregulation through Retinoic Acid Treatment and PAX6 Knockdown Related Expression Profiles: Does PAX6 Affect RA Signaling in Limbal Epithelial Cells?

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Congenital PAX6-aniridia is a rare panocular disease resulting from limbal stem cell deficiency. In PAX6-aniridia, the downregulation of the retinol-metabolizing enzymes ADH7 (All-trans-retinol dehydrogenase 7) and ALDH1A1/A3 (Retinal dehydrogenase 1 ...

Keratin 19 protein expression is an independent predictor of survival in human hepatocellular carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 2015
We aimed to assess the clinicopathological relevance and prognostic significance of expression of the hepatic progenitor cell markers keratin 19 (K19), epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) and CD117 (c-KIT) in a White series of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).We evaluated the immunohistochemical expression of K19, EpCAM and CD117 in 89 surgical ...

The Type I Keratin 19 Possesses Distinct and Context-dependent Assembly Properties [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1998
Keratins (K), the cytoplasmic intermediate filament (IF) proteins of epithelial cells, are encoded by a multigene family and expressed in a tissue- and differentiation-specific manner. In human skin, keratinocytes of the basal layer of epidermis and the outer root sheath of hair follicles express K5 and K14 as their main keratins. A small subpopulation

Clinical and Prognostic Significances of Cytokeratin 19 and KIT Expression in Surgically Resectable Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Pathology and Translational Medicine, 2015
Background: Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs) are malignant endocrine neoplasms that present diverse clinical behaviors. Therefore, identification of biomarkers of PanNETs is important for stratification of the prognosis of PanNET patients ...

Influences of Desmin and Keratin 19 on Passive Biomechanical Properties of Mouse Skeletal Muscle [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biomedicine and Biotechnology, 2012
In skeletal muscle fibers, forces must be transmitted between the plasma membrane and the intracellular contractile lattice, and within this lattice between adjacent myofibrils. Based on their prevalence, biomechanical properties and localization, desmin and keratin intermediate filaments (IFs) are likely to participate in structural connectivity and ...

Chicken keratin‐19: Cloning of cDNA and analysis of expression in the chicken embryonic gut [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopment, Growth & Differentiation, 1997
From many recent studies, it has been argued that keratins (cytokeratins) play important roles in the morphogenesis and differentiation of organ development. To learn the role of keratin in digestive tract development, a cDNA of the chicken homolog of keratin‐19 (GK‐19) was cloned and its expression pattern was analyzed in the digestive tract of ...

Heterogeneity of estrogen receptor expression in circulating tumor cells from metastatic breast cancer patients. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: Endocrine treatment is the most preferable systemic treatment in metastatic breast cancer patients that have had an estrogen receptor (ER) positive primary tumor or metastatic lesions, however, approximately 20% of these patients do not ...

Serum keratin 19 (CYFRA21‐1) is a prognostic biomarker in severe alcoholic hepatitis

open access: yesLiver International, 2022
AbstractBackground and AimsUp to 30% of patients with severe alcoholic hepatitis (sAH) die within 3 months of presentation. The degree of ductular reaction, characterized by accumulation of biliary and liver progenitor cells, confers a poor prognosis.
