Specificity Statement: The antibody reacts exclusively with Cytokeratin 18 in glandular epithelial cells of the digestive, respiratory, and urogenital tracts, endocrine and exocrine cells and mesothelial cells, as well as adenocarcinomas originating from them.
Application Notes (Clone): The antibody detected Cytokeratin 18 by western blot analysis. The antibody reacted with endocervical columnar cells, cervical immature squamous metaplasia and CINIII by immunohistochemistry (Smedts et al., 1990; PMID: 1690513). The antibody stained transitional cell carcinomas of the urinary tract of different grade and stage (Schaafsma et al., 1990; PMID: 1689541).
