Cytokeratin 5 1,0 ml
Specificity and Comments:
CK5 is a 58kD protein that is closely related to CK6. They share similar tissue distribution and are found in various proportions in many non-keratinizing stratified squamous epithelia such as tongue mucosa, basal epithelia hair follicles, trachea, as well as basal cells in prostate glands and mammary glands. CK5 is also expressed in most epithelial and biphasic mesotheliomas. CK5 has also been noted in large cell carcinoma and pulmonary squamous cell carcinomas.
