Application of keratins in cancer diagnosis and prognosis

doi:10.3760/cma.j.cn371439-20200318-00036

Abstract

Abstract:

Keratins are cytoskeleton proteins, which are involved in apoptotic resistance, growth and migration of cancer cells. The levels of some keratins are elevated in the serum of patients with cancers, or highly expressed in cancer tissues, and they are widely used in the diagnosis of tumor in clinic. The expressions of some keratins are negatively correlated with the prognosis of patients with cancers, and can be used as prognostic markers. Further clarifying the diagnostic and prognostic value of keratins combined with other markers detection can provide theoretical basis for the application of keratins in diagnosis and prognostic assessment of cancers.

Key words: Neoplasms, Keratins, Carcinogenesis, Diagnosis, Prognosis
