Cytokeratin 10 also known as CK10 K10 or KRT10 is a type I keratin protein with a mass of about 59 kDa. Researchers recognize it as an important structural protein found mainly in the suprabasal layers of the epidermis where it contributes to maintaining the integrity and function of the skin barrier. Cytokeratin 10 is also expressed in other stratified squamous epithelia. Scientists use antibodies against cytokeratin 10 sometimes called 'lh2' and 'cytokeratin 10 anticuerpos' as neomarkers for identifying specific cell types in tissue studies.
Biological function summary
Keratin proteins like cytokeratin 10 provide mechanical stability to cells and tissues. Cytokeratin 10 forms a heterodimer with keratin 1 (KRT1) creating a complex that plays a critical role in the cytoskeleton of keratinocytes. This structure supports cellular resilience against mechanical stresses helping maintain the integrity of epithelial tissues. Keratin 10 function is essential for normal skin development and differentiation highlighting its significance in epidermal morphogenesis.
Pathways
Cytokeratin 10 is integral to the epidermal differentiation complex. This pathway involves many regulatory proteins and is essential for proper skin formation and repair. Cytokeratin 10 together with KRT1 contributes to the terminal differentiation of keratinocytes. Another key pathway is the cornification process where cytokeratin 10 helps form the protective outer layer of the skin. These biological roles place cytokeratin 10 at an essential point in maintaining skin homeostasis and function.
Abnormal expression or mutation of cytokeratin 10 leads to skin conditions like epidermolytic hyperkeratosis. This rare inherited disorder results in blistering and thickening of the skin. Cytokeratin 10 mutations often appear alongside changes in KRT1 due to their forming a functional pair indicating their collaborative role in disease manifestation. Additionally altered cytokeratin 10 expression can be associated with psoriasis as disrupted keratinocyte differentiation contributes to this inflammatory skin disease. Understanding these associations helps in studying and developing treatment strategies for skin disorders.
