Identification of a population of epidermal squamous cell carcinoma cells with enhanced potential for tumor formation. [PDF]
Epidermal squamous cell carcinoma is among the most common cancers in humans. These tumors are comprised of phenotypically diverse populations of cells that display varying potential for proliferation and differentiation. An important goal is identifying

Immunohistochemical Demonstration of Keratin 19 Expression in Isolated Human Hair Follicles
We examined keratins 19 and 8 in extracted human hair follicles using monoclonal antibodies Ks19.1 and CAM5.2, respectively. Ks19.1 reactivity was found in the bulge and infundibulum. Ks19.1(+) cells were dense in the bulge of vellus and intermediate hair follicles. The intact bulge of terminal hair could not be extracted, but the presence of Ks19.1(+)

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

Keratin 19 im Verdauungssystem
Keratine stellen Intermediärfilamente der Epithelzellen dar. K19 gehört mit K7, K8, K18 und K20 zu den Keratinen der einschichtigen Epithelien. In der Leber wird es in den Gallengangepithelien und hepatischen Stammzellen, nicht aber in adulten Hepatozyten exprimiert.

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