Cytokeratin 8 & 18 (B22.1 & B23.1) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody
Specialties: Anatomic Pathology
Cytokeratins 8 &18 (CK 8 & 18) are expressed in most simple epithelia (e.g. thyroid, breast, gastrointestinal tract, and respiratory tract). Anti-CK 8 & 18 have been reported to stain most adenocarcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas, but not some well-differentiated squamous cell carcinomas.1-3 Cytokeratin 8 & 18 have been reported to be useful markers for identifying Paget cells,4 colorectal carcinoma metastases,5 and gastric cancer micrometastases.6
