Background
Keratin (cytokeratin) is an intermediate filament protein, which is mainly expressed in epithelial cells such as gastric epithelium and intestinal epithelium. Keratin heterodimers composed of acidic keratin (or type I keratin, keratin 9 to 23) and basic keratin (or type II keratin, keratin 1 to 8) assemble to form filaments. Keratin isoforms exhibit tissue- and differentiation-specific characteristics, making them useful as research biomarkers. Studies have shown that mutations in the keratin gene are related to skin diseases, liver and pancreatic diseases, and inflammatory bowel disease. Therefore, cytokeratin can be used as a tumor immunohistochemical marker.Keratin 20 (CK-20) is an essential intermediate filament component and the main cytoskeleton keratin of the intestinal epithelium. Studies have shown that keratin 20 is an important marker for colon cancer, liver cancer, and stomach cancer.
