Human keratins are a family of water-insoluble proteins with molecular weights ranging from 40kD – 68kD. They form a part of the cytoskeleton of epithelial cells. This monoclonal cytokeratin antibody can be used to detect cytokeratins 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 13, and 18 in simple or stratified epithelium in most vertebrates including human. It can be used as a marker for carcinoma as well as some special types of tumors which have an epithelial component or differentiation. Cytokeratin antibodies have been widely used as markers to differentiate epithelial tumors from non-epithelial tumors
