Keratins are cytoplasmic intermediate filament proteins expressed by epithelial cells and their neoplasms. Cytokeratin 20 is a type I keratin mainly found in the gastric and intestinal mucosa. Antibody Cytokeratin 20 is useful in the detection of a variety of adenocarcinomas arising from epithelia, such as colorectal carcinomas, transitional-cell and Merkel cell carcinomas, gastric and pancreatic tumors. CK20 is often used in a panel with antibody Cytokeratin 7.
