Abstract
The expression of some types of cytokeratin and vimentin in the liver was studied by using monoclonal antibodies to these types of intermediary filaments. Necrotic samples from livers without pathological finding were examined. A panel of 5 monoclonal antibodies, prepared in Czechoslovakia, to cytokeratins Nos. 7,8,18, and 19, as well as to vimentin was used. The findings confirmed the characteristic expression of cytokeratins 8 and 18 in hepatocytes and of cytokeratins 7, 8, 18, and 19 in epithelial cells of intrahepatic bile canaliculi, that monoclonal antibodies prepared in Czechoslovakia (LAMO, Brno and VUKEO, Brno) can be successfully used in immunochemical studies of intermediary filaments in the liver.
