Cytokeratin 4 Antibody / KRT4

SKU: orb2643477

Description

Cytokeratin 4 (KRT4) is an intermediate filament protein associated with Cytokeratin 13 (KRT13). It is expressed in suprabasal cells of non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium of esophagus, cornea, anus, larynx, pharynx and tongue. Decreased expression of KRT4 is associated with head and neck squamous carcinoma. It is helpful in differentiation of squamous cell carcinoma of esophagus origin from that of thyroid origin.
