| pubmed-article:7677978 | pubmed:abstractText | Thymus consists of some distinct epithelial cells that contain different sets of cytokeratins (CK). Epithelium-derived tumors maintain the expression of some of the CK of the specific nontransformed cells. Therefore, it seems reasonable to hypothesize that thymic epithelial tumors may differentiate toward distinct subsets of intrathymic epithelial cells in terms of CK expression. | lld:pubmed |
