Cytokeratin 7 Antibody (Immunohistochemistry)
The Cytokeratin 7 (CK7) Antibody is a widely used immunohistochemical marker.
It helps distinguish epithelial-origin tumors derived from various tissues.
In addition, CK7 is a basic cytokeratin expressed in glandular and transitional epithelia such as
the lung, breast, uterus, and urothelium. However, it is typically absent in stratified squamous and
colorectal epithelium.
Moreover, CK7 becomes even more informative when paired with CK20.
As a result, the CK7/CK20 profile provides a reliable diagnostic pattern for differentiating lung, breast,
ovarian, and endometrial carcinomas from colorectal and prostate carcinomas.
Therefore, CK7 is essential in routine tumor classification.
