Rabbit Anti-KRT17 (Keratin, Type I Cytoskeletal 17, 39.1, Cytokeratin-17, CK-17, Keratin-17, K17)
The type I keratin 17 (K17) shows a peculiar localization in human epithelial appendages including hair follicles, which undergo a growth cycle throughout adult life. Additionally K17 is induced, along with K6 and K16, early after acute injury to human skin. Predominant expression of K17 and the frequent expression of K8 and K19, with little K6/K16 and K1/K10 expression are the characteristic features of basal cell carcinomas (BCC). This expresssion indicates BCC is differentiated towards undifferentiated follicular epithelia, most probably hair bulge cells.
