Cytokeratin 13 (CK13) expression in cancer: a tissue microarray study on 10,439 tumors
APMIS, Volume 131, Issue 2, Page 77-91, February 2023., 2023 Cytokeratin 13 (CK13) is a type I acidic low molecular weight cytokeratin, which is mainly expressed in urothelium and in the squamous epithelium of various sites of origin. Loss of CK13 has been implicated in the development and progression of squamous epithelial neoplasms. To comprehensively determine CK13 expression in normal and neoplastic tissues,
