Molecular cloning and characterization of B-cadherin, a novel chick cadherin. [PDF]
, 1991 Calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion is mediated in large part by a set of homologous integral membrane glycoproteins termed cadherins. In this report, antibodies to conserved domains in previously described cadherins have been used to isolate cDNAs ...

Beta-actin is required for proper mouse neural crest ontogeny [PDF]
, 2014 The mouse genome consists of six functional actin genes of which the expression patterns are temporally and spatially regulated during development and in the adult organism. Deletion of beta-actin in mouse is lethal during embryonic development, although

Cadherins as Matchmakers [PDF]
Neuron, 2011 Cadherins implement afferent-target matching in invertebrates, but proof for this concept in mammalian circuits has remained elusive. Two new studies in this issue of Neuron show that cadherin-6 mediates retinal ganglion cell target selection and that cadherin-9 promotes synapse specificity in the hippocampus.

Cells, 2022 Cell–cell junctions are pivotal for embryogenesis and tissue homeostasis but also play a major role in tumorigenesis, tumor invasion, and metastasis. E-cadherin (CDH1) and N-cadherin (CDH2) are two adherens junction’s transmembrane glycoproteins with ...

Effects of systemic administration of HESA-A on the expression of cyclin D1 and EGFR and E-cadherin in the induced tongue dysplasia in rats [PDF]
Journal of Dental Research, Dental Clinics, Dental Prospects, 2017 Background. HESA-A has herbal and marine bases, containing minerals and rare elements such as Zr, Cr, Ga, Mn, Mg, Ca, Sr, Cu, Ti, etc. Its mechanism of action includes antioxidant, antiinflammatory and adjustment of the immune system.

Desmoglein-2 as a cancer modulator: friend or foe?
Frontiers in Oncology, 2023 Desmoglein-2 (DSG2) is a calcium-binding single pass transmembrane glycoprotein and a member of the large cadherin family. Until recently, DSG2 was thought to only function as a cell adhesion protein embedded within desmosome junctions designed to enable

N-cadherin acts in concert with Slit1-Robo2 signaling in regulating aggregation of placode-derived cranial sensory neurons [PDF]
, 2009 Vertebrate cranial sensory ganglia have a dual origin from the neural crest and ectodermal placodes. In the largest of these, the trigeminal ganglion, Slit1-Robo2 signaling is essential for proper ganglion assembly.

Insects, 2012 As key factors in intercellular adhesion processes, cadherins play important roles in a plethora of developmental processes, including gametogenesis. In a previous study on cadherin localization in the gonads of honey bees, performed with heterologous ...
