Other Information

**Key Characteristics** 1. **Type II keratin**: KRT84 belongs to the type II keratin family, which is distinct from type I keratins, such as keratin 1 and 5. Type II keratins, like KRT84, are characterized by their ability to form coiled-coil dimers and contribute to the structural integrity of epithelial cells. 2. **Intermediate filament organization**: KRT84 is a component of the intermediate filament network, which provides mechanical support and stability to cells. Its interaction with other intermediate filaments, such as keratin 14 and 19, is essential for maintaining cell shape and resisting mechanical stress. 3. **Epithelial cell differentiation**: KRT84 is specifically expressed during the process of keratinocyte differentiation, which is critical for the formation of the cornified envelope, a key feature of mature epithelial cells. Its expression is also required for the development of hair follicles and nails. 4. **Widespread expression**: KRT84 is expressed in various cell types, including erythrocytes, goblet cells, megakaryocytes, and neoplastic cells, highlighting its importance in multiple tissues and cellular contexts. **Pathways and Functions** 1. **Formation of the cornified envelope**: KRT84 plays a crucial role in the formation of the cornified envelope, a critical structure that provides mechanical strength and resistance to environmental stresses in mature epithelial cells. 2. **Hair follicle development**: KRT84 is essential for the development of hair follicles, as its expression is required for the differentiation of keratinocytes and the formation of the hair follicle structure. 3. **Nail development**: KRT84 is also involved in nail development, as its expression is necessary for the differentiation of keratinocytes in the nail matrix. 4. **Regulation of keratinocyte differentiation**: KRT84 acts as a regulatory protein, influencing the differentiation of keratinocytes and the formation of the cornified envelope. 5. **Extracellular exosome formation**: KRT84 is involved in the formation of extracellular exosomes, which are small vesicles that play a critical role in intercellular communication and the regulation of cellular processes. **Clinical Significance** 1. **Cancer progression**: Aberrant expression of KRT84 has been observed in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, and colon cancer. Its dysregulation may contribute to cancer progression and metastasis. 2. **Epidermal disorders**: Mutations in KRT84 have been associated with epidermal disorders, such as epidermolysis bullosa simplex, which is characterized by blistering and skin fragility. 3. **Nail disorders**: KRT84 mutations have also been linked to nail disorders, such as nail plate thinning and brittleness. 4. **Wound healing**: KRT84 may play a role in wound healing, as its expression is upregulated in response to tissue injury. Its dysregulation may impair wound healing and tissue repair. In conclusion, KRT84 is a critical component of the intermediate filament cytoskeleton, playing a pivotal role in the structural integrity and differentiation of epithelial cells. Its widespread expression and involvement in various cellular processes make it an important protein for understanding the development and progression of diseases.
