The lipid fraction (“fat cake”) of rat epididymal adipocytes contains a prominent
phosphoprotein (62 kDaapp by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) …

The authors have recently identified a new cytokeratin (CK) polypeptide, CK 20, whose
expression is almost entirely confined to the gastric and intestinal epithelium, urothelium …

We report the human DNA and protein sequence of adipophilin and its association with the
surface of lipid droplets. The amino acid sequence of human adipophilin has been …

A major cytoskeletal polypeptide (Mr approximately 46,000; protein IT) of human intestinal
epithelium was characterized by biochemical and immunological methods. The polypeptide …

Keratins are the largest subgroup of intermediate filament proteins, which are an important
constituent of the cellular cytoskeleton. The principally expressed keratins (K) of the …

Fatty change (steatosis) is the most frequent liver pathology in western countries and is
caused by a broad range of disorders such as alcohol abuse and metabolic syndrome. The …

Breast biology and pathology are currently shaped by the two-cell concept that recognizes
only glandular and myoepithelial cells. In the present study, we have visualized a previously …

During adipose conversion of murine 3T3-Ll cells, the arrangement of vimentin intermediate
filaments (IFS) changes from an extended fibrillar state to a complex cage formation tightly …

Using antibodies and recombinant DNA techniques, we have identified plakophilin 2, a
novel desmosomal plaque protein of M (r) 100,000 (estimated from SDS-PAGE), which is a …

Fetal rat hepatocytes treated with transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) die by apoptosis.
However, a subpopulation of them survives and undergoes an epithelial mesenchymal …
