Cat.No.
CSC-I9236L
Description
The gingival epithelium protects periodontal tissue from bacteria and toxic substances. Keratinocytes play an important role in promoting strong epithelial bonds through the formation of intercellular connections with the cytoskeleton and neighboring cells. The Immortalized Human Gingival Keratinocytes are isolated primary oral keratinocytes transfected to express the HPV-16 E7. It expresses cytokeratin 2, cytokeratin 17, cytokeratin 19, involucrin, filaggrin, and claudin-1. These cells may be differentiated by altering culturing conditions to build transepithelial electrical resistance, a distinct characteristic of gingival keratinocytes. These cells are recommended for studies in mechanisms that contribute to the specific properties of the gingiva tissue, such as the epithelial barrier function.
