Product Overview:
Cytokeratin 18 (CK18) is an intermediate filament protein and a member of the cytokeratin protein family.{59484} It is a type I acidic cytokeratin expressed in epithelial tissues, including those found in liver, lung, kidney, pancreas, and the gastrointestinal tract, and is localized in the cytoplasm and perinuclear region. CK18 is co-expressed with the type II neutral-basic cytokeratin CK8, with which it forms intermediate filaments essential to cytoplasmic structure. During apoptosis, CK18 is cleaved by caspases and released from the cell, and is commonly used as a marker of epithelial cell death.{59639} Plasma levels of CK18 positively correlate with the magnitude of hepatocyte apoptosis in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and are independently predictive of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).{59640} Serum levels of CK18 are elevated in patients with cardiometabolic disorders, including diabetes and hypertension, in an NAFLD-independent manner.{59639} CK18 tumor expression positively correlates with poorly differentiated oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) tumors and poor prognosis.{59641} Cayman’s Cytokeratin 18 Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody can be used for immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Western blot (WB) applications.

Cayman Chemical's mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.

Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.

Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.

Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
