Anti-KRT8 Antibody

This polyclonal reagent from Antibodies.com targets Keratin 8 (KRT8), a type II intermediate filament protein abundantly expressed in simple and glandular epithelia. Raised in rabbit and supplied as 100 µL of unconjugated antiserum, the antibody supports western blot, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence workflows on human, mouse, and rat samples.

KRT8 contributes to the structural integrity of epithelial cells and is widely used as a marker for epithelial differentiation, circulating tumor cell detection, and studies of hepatocellular and pancreatic tissue. Researchers investigating liver injury models, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, or carcinoma classification commonly rely on this reagent to track cytokeratin expression across tissue sections and cell lysates. The unconjugated format allows flexible pairing with custom fluorophore or enzyme labels suited to individual detection protocols, and storage at 4 °C in single-use aliquots helps preserve activity through repeated staining experiments.
