Nam‐On Ku, Pavel Strnad, Bi‐Hui Zhong, Guo‐Zhong Tao, M. Bishr Omary – 29 October 2007 – Keratin polypeptides 8 and 18 (K8/K18) are the cytoskeletal intermediate filament proteins of hepatocytes while K8/K18/K19 are the keratins of hepatobiliary ductal cells. Hepatocyte K8/K18 are highly abundant and behave as stress proteins with injury‐inducible expression.
