Mechanisms of endothelial cell dysfunction in cystic fibrosis [PDF]

, 2017
Although cystic fibrosis (CF) patients exhibit signs of endothelial perturbation, the functions of the cystic fibrosis conductance regulator (CFTR) in vascular endothelial cells (EC) are poorly defined.

Recent progress in T-cadherin (CDH13, H-cadherin) research.

Histology and histopathology, 2001
T-cadherin is a unique cadherin cell adhesion molecule that is anchored to the cell surface membrane through a glycosyl phosphatidyl inositol (GPI) moiety. The cytoplasmic domain, which T-cadherin lacks, is believed to be critical for homophilic binding through interaction with submembrane cytoskeletal proteins.

GRHL2-HER3 and E-cadherin mediate EGFR-bypass drug resistance in lung cancer cells

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a major oncogenic protein, and thus EGFR-targeting therapies are widely used in patients with various types of cancer, including lung cancer. However, resistance to EGFR inhibitors, such as erlotinib, presents a

Intermediate filament–membrane attachments function synergistically with actin-dependent contacts to regulate intercellular adhesive strength [PDF]

, 2002
By tethering intermediate filaments (IFs) to sites of intercellular adhesion, desmosomes facilitate formation of a supercellular scaffold that imparts mechanical strength to a tissue.

Cadherins and cardiovascular disease

Swiss Medical Weekly, 2009
Cardiovascular diseases encompass an enormous range of conditions arising through an equally diverse aetiology. The cadherin superfamily of cell surface adhesion molecules have long been recognised for their crucial roles in morphogenesis and controlled growth and turnover in adult tissues.

Anthrax Lethal Toxin-Mediated Disruption of Endothelial VE-Cadherin Is Attenuated by Inhibition of the Rho-Associated Kinase Pathway

Toxins, 2011
Systemic anthrax disease is characterized by vascular leakage pathologies. We previously reported that anthrax lethal toxin (LT) induces human endothelial barrier dysfunction in a cell death-independent manner with actin stress fiber formation and ...

The Drosophila F-box protein Fbxl7 binds to the protocadherin Fat and regulates Dachs localization and Hippo signaling

eLife, 2014
The Drosophila protocadherin Fat (Ft) regulates growth, planar cell polarity (PCP) and proximodistal patterning. A key downstream component of Ft signaling is the atypical myosin Dachs (D).

Ingression-type cell migration drives vegetal endoderm internalisation in the Xenopus gastrula

eLife, 2017
During amphibian gastrulation, presumptive endoderm is internalised as part of vegetal rotation, a large-scale movement that encompasses the whole vegetal half of the embryo. It has been considered a gastrulation process unique to amphibians, but we show
