Cytokeratin 19 (CK19) also known as cytokeratine 19 keratin 19 (KRT19) or CK19 is a type of intermediate filament found in epithelial cells. It serves as an essential component of the cytoskeleton. CK19 weighs approximately 40 kDa and is broadly expressed in simple epithelial tissues including liver intestine and various glandular epithelial cells. As a cytokeratin marker it often appears in combination with others like cytokeratin 17 in certain tissue types helping to maintain the structural integrity of cells.
CK19 plays a role in maintaining the cytoskeletal framework that provides mechanical support and helps control cell size and shape. It is not part of a large protein complex but works closely with other cytokeratins to ensure the stability and resilience of epithelial tissues. The A53-B/A22.26 positive staining is often used to confirm its presence in clinical histopathology.
CK19 connects to cellular processes especially involving the keratinization and epithelial cell differentiation pathways. It interacts with other cytokeratins including BA16 and KR17 to facilitate these processes. This interaction aids in modulating the dynamics of cytoskeletal rearrangement during cell movement division and differentiation.
CK19 overexpression is linked with certain cancers notably hepatocellular carcinoma and breast cancer. It can serve as a prognostic marker in these diseases often in conjunction with other markers like CK17. The involvement of CK19 in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process connects it to the progression and aggressiveness of tumors facilitated by interactions with proteins involved in EMT pathways.
