Activity summary

Pan cytokeratin also known as cytokeratin AE1/AE3 is a cytoskeletal protein complex that consists of different keratin polypeptides. It mechanically supports epithelial cells contributing to their structural integrity. The protein mass is variable due to its composite nature ranging between 40 to 67 kDa. Pan cytokeratin is expressed in epithelial tissues throughout the body serving as a reliable marker for identifying epithelial origin cells in histological studies.

Biological function summary

Keratins in pan cytokeratin contribute to maintaining structural stability within epithelial cells. They act as components of the cytoskeletal network interacting with other cellular structures to provide protection from stress and mechanical damage. Pan cytokeratin exists as part of the intermediate filament protein complex which plays a significant role in cellular mechanics and cohesion essential for tissue integrity.

Pathways

Intermediate filaments containing pan cytokeratin participate in pathways related to cell differentiation and stress response. Its interactions with other proteins like desmoplakin and plectin link the cytoskeletal filaments to cell membranes and the extracellular matrix. This involvement is important in pathways related to cellular structural integrity and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT).

Associated diseases and disorders

Pan cytokeratin serves as a critical marker in the diagnosis of epithelial-derived cancers such as carcinoma and conditions like psoriasis. Abnormal expression patterns of pan cytokeratin indicate tumor presence and origin. Its connection to proteins such as E-cadherin and vimentin assists in understanding the progression and metastasis of cancer by facilitating EMT and tissue invasion diagnostics.
