Description
Mouse Monoclonal, RTU. Intended for in vitro diagnostic (IVD) use. Anti-cytokeratin 7 (CK7) reacts with proteins that are found in most ductal, glandular, transitional, and biliary duct epithelial cells. CK7 is a common marker of primary lung adenocarcinomas (almost all cases) with a lower specificity since it is also observed in other primary lung carcinomas and non-pulmonary carcinomas. CK7 is also useful in the differential diagnosis of ovarian neoplasms. CK7 does not recognize intermediate filament proteins. References 1. Jerome MV, et al.
