KERATINIZATION

open access: yesInternational Journal of Dermatology, 1976
Early studies have already shown that the tonofibrils of malpighian cells consist of a --SH containing fibrous alpha-protein. It was assumed that the highly resistant protective substance, keratin, was formed by the conversion of --SH groups into --S--S--bonds in this protein.

Roles of Keratins in Intestine

open access: yes, 2022
Keratins make up a major portion of epithelial intermediate filament proteins. The widely diverse keratins are found in both the small and large intestines. The human intestine mainly expresses keratins 8, 18, 19, and 20.

The time-dependent expression of keratins 5 and 13 during the reepithelialization of human skin wounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The time-dependent reepithelialization of 55 human surgical skin wounds with a wound age between 8h and more than 2 months was investigated by the immunohistochemical localization of cytokeratins 5 and 13.

Transient Expression of Mouse Hair Keratins in Transfected HeLa Cells: Interactions Between “Hard” and “Soft” Keratins [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Although it has been shown previously that an acidic (type I) “soft” keratin can interact with many basic (type II) “soft” keratins to form 10-nm intermediate filaments, it has been unclear whether “soft” keratins are compatible with the “hard” keratins ...

Keratin 17 Suppresses Cell Proliferation and Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2020
Keratin 17 (K17), a member of type I acidic epithelial keratin family, has been reported to be upregulated in many malignant tumors and to be involved in promoting the development of tumors.

A Mouse Model of Hyperproliferative Human Epithelium Validated by Keratin Profiling Shows an Aberrant Cytoskeletal Response to Injury

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2016
A validated animal model would assist with research on the immunological consequences of the chronic expression of stress keratins KRT6, KRT16, and KRT17, as observed in human pre-malignant hyperproliferative epithelium.

Carbamoylated Nail Proteins as Assessed by Near-Infrared Analysis Are Associated with Load of Uremic Toxins and Mortality in Hemodialysis Patients

open access: yesToxins, 2020
Carbamoylation is an important risk factor for accelerated atherogenesis and mortality in patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). We intended to explore whether carbamoylation as assessed by near-infrared (NIR) analysis of nail proteins is associated with

Sedimentation Studies of Epidermal Keratins. Keratin A and Keratin B [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 1956
Electrophoretically homogeneous keratin A and keratin B were studied in the ultracentrifuge. Both preparations revealed two fractions: one which sedimented rapidly and another which sedimented slowly. This indicated that both preparations are heterogeneous with respect to particle size.

Switches of SOX17 and SOX2 expression in the development of squamous metaplasia and squamous intraepithelial lesions of the uterine cervix

open access: yesCancer Medicine, 2020
Aims The dynamics and topographical distribution of SOX17 and SOX2 expression was studied in the transformation zone (TZ) of the uterine cervix. This TZ is a dynamic area where switches from glandular into squamous epithelium can be recognized, new ...
