Cytokeratin 8 & 18 (B22.1 & B23.1) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody
Specialties: Anatomic Pathology
Detection of cytokeratins 8 and 18 by immunohistochemistry (IHC) with Cytokeratin 8 & 18 (B22.1 & B23.1) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody may be used to aid in the diagnosis of adenocarcinomas.
Cytokeratin (CK) 8 and 18 are both members of the cytokeratin family, a family of intermediate filament proteins that are produced by epithelial cells. Cytokeratin 8 and 18 are both low molecular weight cytokeratins that are produced by simple epithelium, which lines the ducts and glands of many tissues including breast, gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, and prostate.1,2 Both CK 8 and CK 18 are expressed in most adenocarcinomas.1-5 Immunohistochemistry for cytokeratin 8 & 18 shows a cytoplasmic pattern of staining.
In combination with other antibodies, this product may be used as an aid in diagnosis.
