Morphology, Motility, and Cytoskeletal Architecture of Breast Cancer Cells Depend on Keratin 19 and Substrate. [PDF]

Cytometry A, 2020
AbstractCancer cells gain motility through events that accompany modulation of cell shape and include altered expression of keratins. However, the role of keratins in change of cancer cell architecture is not well understood. Therefore, we ablated the expression of keratin 19 (K19) in breast cancer cells of the MDA‐MB‐231 cell line and found that cells

Heterogeneity of Epigenetic and Epithelial Mesenchymal Transition Marks in Hepatocellular Carcinoma with Keratin 19 Proficiency. [PDF]

Liver Cancer, 2019
<b><i>Objective:</i></b> Keratin 19 (K19) expression is a potential predictor of poor prognosis in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). To clarify the feature of K19-proficient HCC, we traced epigenetic footprints in cultured cells and clinical materials.

Voiding symptoms aggravate with decreasing stromal/epithelial ratio and increasing glandular-epithelial content in patients undergoing laser enucleation for benign prostatic hyperplasia, independently from prostate size. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
IntroductionBenign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) includes epithelial, stromal and mixed hyperplasia, but their specific contributions to voiding symptoms and prostate volume (PV) are unknown.

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

BMC 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 ...

The correlation between poor prognosis and increased yes-associated protein 1 expression in keratin 19 expressing hepatocellular carcinomas and cholangiocarcinomas [PDF]

BMC Cancer, 2017
Background The Hippo pathway plays a vital role in liver regeneration and development by determining cellular lineage and regulating cell proliferation and apoptosis.

Mammalian SIRT2 inhibits keratin 19 expression and is a tumor suppressor in skin. [PDF]

Exp Dermatol, 2014
AbstractSIRT2 is a member of the mammalian sirtuin family (SIRT1‐7). As compared with other sirtuins, SIRT2 is found primarily in the cytoplasm. It regulates multiple physiological processes. However, the precise role of SIRT2 in skin cancer remains unclear.

Improving the Adsorption Properties of Keratin-Based Goat Hair Toward Reactive Dyes in Dyeing Wastewater by Steam Explosion

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2023
Keratin-based goat hair could be used bioadsorbent due to its large availability, biodegradability and low cost. Unfortunately, most available keratin adsorbents are either low in adsorption capacity or high in preparation cost.

Efficient isolation of keratin from protein-rich waste biomass: a practical approach to minimize environmental impact and valorize waste biomass

Sustainable Environment Research, 2022
Among various protein-containing biomass wastes, waste animal wool, poultry feather, and human hair are considered one of the most important renewable sources of keratin.

Keratin 19: a key role player in the invasion of human hepatocellular carcinomas [PDF]

Gut, 2013
Objective Keratin (K)19, a biliary/hepatic progenitor cell (HPC) marker, is expressed in a subset of hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) with poor prognosis. The underlying mechanisms driving this phenotype of K19-positive HCC remain elusive. Design
