Publication Link Summary of findings
18064689 Cytokeratin markers (CK5/6 and K903) are useful in differentiating squamous cell carcinoma from adenocarcinoma when malignant mesothelioma is already excluded
18035671 Existence of Ck5-positive cells that differentiate to the glandular or myoepithelial breast cell lineage via intermediary cells.
17855059 reports 2 novel mutations in keratin 5 in patients with epidermolysis bullosa complex with an unusual genotype-phenotype correlation
17650314 CK5/6 and/or EGFR expressing tumor types have a persistently poorer prognosis over the longer term.
16152605 loss of p63 or CK5/6 was associated with features of aggressive tumors, and lack of CK5/6 was significantly associated with reduced survival in multivariate analysis
12655565 Four novel KRT5 mutations identified two of which were outside of the KRT5 hotspot domains in 9 Epidermolysis bullosa simplex patients.
12466114 expression in breast cancer cells was associated with a poor clinical outcome
