Abstract excerpt

Normally the expression of the murine type I keratin K13 is restricted to differentiating cells of internal squamous epithelia which line the oral cavity and the upper digestive tract. Recently, however, we were able to show that K13 is aberrantly but constitutively expressed without its normal t...
