Barrett's esophagus is characterized by expression of gastric-type mucins (MUC5AC, MUC6) and TFF peptides (TFF1 and TFF2), but the risk of carcinoma development may be indicated by the intestinal-type mucin, MUC2

2010, Gastrointestinal EndoscopyCitation Excerpt :Further support for this hypothesis derives from histopathological data showing the development of columnar epithelium-lined esophagus of the lower part (such as Barrett's esophagus) from distal esophageal glands.13 Moreover, the mucin and cytokeratin profile of Barrett's esophagus and the mucosa found in GIP and that in esophageal glands show certain similarities.14,15 Hence, there appears to be a metaplastic sequence from esophageal glands to columnar epithelium for both the lower and upper esophagus.

2007, Experimental Eye ResearchCitation Excerpt :The question whether the expression of CK7 in PPCD may arise as a consequence of a less differentiated phenotype of pathological metaplastic epithelial cells remains to be elucidated. CK19 is a proposed limbal stem cell marker and can be characteristic of not fully differentiated cells as well as of metaplastic epithelium (Lauweryns et al., 1993; Mandys et al., 2003). The presence of the simple epithelial CK pair 8/18 in normal human endothelium is a matter of some controversy.
