Flow Cytometry (Intracellular) - Anti-Cytokeratin 18 antibody [C-04] (AB668)
Overlay histogram showing HCT 116 (Human colorectal carcinoma cell line) cells stained with ab668 (red line).
The cells were fixed with methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab668, 1μg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG1 [ICIGG1] (ab91353, 2μg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a positive signal in HCT 116 cells fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde/permeabilized in 0.1% PBS-Triton used under the same conditions.

Biological function summary
CK18 maintains cellular integrity and mediates resistance to mechanical and non-mechanical stresses in epithelial cells. It forms heterodimers with KRT8 participating in a complex network of filaments important for maintaining cell shape and stability. This organization plays a role in managing cell survival during stress and apoptosis helping regulate cellular functions and responses in tissues where it is expressed.
Pathways
Cytokeratin 18 is involved in the apoptosis and cellular stress response pathways. It interacts with proteins such as caspases during apoptosis facilitating cytoskeletal reorganization and cell fragmentation. CK18 in coordination with KRT8 also participates in signaling pathways that regulate cell cycle and apoptotic processes underlining its importance in cellular turnover and tissue homeostasis.
