ilk
ilk 1 I0031800 (ĭlk)n. Type or kind: can't trust people of that ilk.pron. Scots The same. Used following a name to indicate that the one named resides in an area bearing the same name: Duncan of that ilk.
[Middle English ilke, same, from Old English ilca; see i- in Indo-European roots.]Word History: When one uses ilk, as in the phrase men of his ilk, one is using a word with an ancient pedigree even though the sense of ilk, "kind or sort," is actually quite recent, having been first recorded at the end of the 18th century. This sense grew out of an older use of ilk in the phrase of that ilk, meaning "of the same place, territorial designation, or name." This phrase was used chiefly in names of landed families, Guthrie of that ilk meaning "Guthrie of Guthrie." "Same" is the fundamental meaning of the word. The ancestors of ilk, Old English ilca and Middle English ilke, were common words, usually appearing with such words as the or that, but the word hardly survived the Middle Ages in those uses.

You can bet that, down on the docks, there are a great many men of his ilk loitering about at night.See also: ilk, ofof that ilkOf the same kind or class. The word ilk is now rarely used (except in Scotland) other than in this cliché, which is actually a twisting of the original meaning. It comes from the Old English ilca, meaning “the same,” and is correctly used only in referring to a person whose last name is the same as that of his estate; for example, Cawdor of that ilk means “Cawdor of Cawdor.”See also: ilk, of, thatILK
ILK A gene on chromosome 11p15.4 that encodes a receptor-proximal serine/threonine protein kinase which regulates integrin-mediated signal transduction, possibly by mediating so-called inside-out integrin signalling. ILK is the adhesion protein member of the ILK-PINCH complex, which is a convergence point of the integrin- and growth factor-signalling pathways; it may play a role in mediating cell architecture, adhesion to integrin substrates and anchorage-dependent growth in epithelial cells. It is highly expressed in the heart, and less so in the skeletal muscle, pancreas and kidneys.ILK
