• Background: Cytokeratin is a type I intermediate filament, expressed by stratifying epithelial cells and can be used to distinguish these cell types from simple epithelial cells, which do not express cytokeratin 14.
  Keratin 14 is a member of the keratin family, the most diverse group of intermediate filaments. It is usually found as a heterotetramer with two molecules of keratin 5, a type II keratin. Together they form the cytoskeleton of epithelial cells. Mutations in the genes for these keratins are associated with epidermolysis bullosa simplex. Keratin 14 has been studied as a prognostic marker in breast cancer.
• Synonyms: Cytokeratin-14, CK14, Keratin 14, K14, KRT14
