Response of xenografts of developing human female reproductive tracts to the synthetic estrogen, diethylstilbestrol. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Human female fetal reproductive tracts 9.5-22 weeks of gestation were grown for 1 month in ovariectomized athymic adult female mouse hosts that were either untreated or treated continuously with diethylstilbestrol (DES) via subcutaneous pellet.

Significance of stress keratin expression in normal and diseased epithelia

open access: yesiScience
Summary: A group of keratin intermediate filament genes, the type II KRT6A-C and type I KRT16 and KRT17, are deemed stress responsive as they are induced in keratinocytes of surface epithelia in response to environmental stressors, in skin disorders (e.g.

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.

Utility of Keratins as Biomarkers for Human Oral Precancer and Cancer

open access: yesLife, 2022
Human oral cancer is the single largest group of malignancies in the Indian subcontinent and the sixth largest group of malignancies worldwide. Squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) are the most common epithelial malignancy of the oral cavity, constituting over

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.

Human hair keratins

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1993
Human hair keratins were among the first to be studied but it is only recently that sufficient information has been obtained to gain a basic biologic perspective of these proteins. Hair keratins are members of the intermediate filament family of proteins, yet are sufficiently divergent from epidermal keratins to warrant separate classification: type Ia
