Abstract excerpt
The patterns of expression of keratins K1 and K8, filaggrin, and the proliferation-associated protein, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), were studied in normal and human papillomavirus (HPV) 16 or 18 immortalized keratinocyte cell lines grown on organotypic raft cultures. Normal keratinocytes produced an epithelial sheet that closely resembled epidermis in vivo, characterized by lack of K8 expression,...
