Keratins in oral cancer; An overview
: Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) is an aggressive epithelial malignancy which has a rising incidence in the developing countries. Karachi South has reported OSCC as the second most common cancer in both genders according to 2002 statistics.It has

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
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]
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]
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
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.

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