Cytokeratin 6 is an epidermis-specific type I keratin involved in wound healing. Involved in the activation of follicular keratinocytes after wounding, while it does not play a major role in keratinocyte proliferation or migration. This protein always paired with the type-I keratin K16.Cytokeratin 6 have been identified in epidermis only in samples from plantar glabrous skin while in hairy skin this keratin appeared to be absent in interfollicular epidermis but were clearly present in hair follicle outer root sheath, and this protein also consistently expressed in non-keratinizing stratified squamous epithelia. Among tumors, cytokeratin 6 is typically and strongly expressed in squamous cell carcinomas of different sites, preferentially in inner, maturing layers of the tumor cell nests.Cytokeratin 6 is always used with cytokeratin 5 and is a useful aid for classification of epithelioid mesotheliomas.
Ab produced in HEK293 cell mammalian-based expression system. Prepared in 10mM PBS with 0.05% BSA & 0.05% azide. Also available WITHOUT BSA & azide.
Keratin, type II cytoskeletal 6A Rabbit Recombinant Monoclonal Antibody (MSVA-606R) tested on many normal and cancer tissues. The immunohistochemistry staining in these tissues aligns with the expression data in Human Protein Atlas.
