Relevant detection systems :
Boster provides a series of assays reacted with primary antibodies. Antibody can be supported by chemiluminescence kit EK1002 in WB, supported by SA1022 in IHC(P).
Background :
Cytokeratin 8(CK8), also known as Keratin 8(K8), is a type II keratin. Among the various intermediate filament(IF) proteins, cytokeratin 8(CK8) is especially remarkable as it is produced early in embryogenesis, is the only type-II CK occurring in many simple epithelial cells, and can also be synthesized in certain non-epithelial cells. Cytokeratin 8 mRNA was abundant in fetal small intestine, placenta, pancreas, lung, liver, and kidney. Levels of cytokeratin 8 mRNA in placenta increased slightly during pregnancy. He et al.(2002) presented evidence that K8 is a new cytoplasmic target for JNK in Fas receptor-mediated signaling. The functional significance of this phosphorylation could relate to regulation of JNK signaling and/or regulation of keratin dynamics.
