LY6/PLAUR domain containing 3 (LYPD3) maintains melanoma cell stemness and mediates an immunosuppressive microenvironment [PDF]
Biology Direct, 2023 Background Malignant melanoma is a highly heterogeneous skin cancer with the highest mortality rate among dermatological cancers. Catenins form functional networks in the nucleus to regulate gene expression and determine cell fate.

Catenin signaling controls phrenic motor neuron development and function during a narrow temporal window [PDF]
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2023 Phrenic Motor Column (PMC) neurons are a specialized subset of motor neurons (MNs) that provide the only motor innervation to the diaphragm muscle and are therefore essential for survival.

p120-catenin subfamily members have distinct as well as shared effects on dendrite morphology during neuron development in vitro [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2023 Dendritic arborization is essential for proper neuronal connectivity and function. Conversely, abnormal dendrite morphology is associated with several neurological pathologies like Alzheimer’s disease and schizophrenia.

Cadherins and catenins in cancer: connecting cancer pathways and tumor microenvironment [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023 Cadherin-catenin complexes are integral components of the adherens junctions crucial for cell-cell adhesion and tissue homeostasis. Dysregulation of these complexes is linked to cancer development via alteration of cell-autonomous oncogenic signaling ...

Actin-dependent α-catenin oligomerization contributes to adherens junction assembly [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsClassic cadherins, specifically E-cadherin in most epithelial cells, are transmembrane adhesion receptors, whose intracellular region interacts with proteins, termed catenins, forming the cadherin-catenin complex (CCC).

Expression of catenins in human cancer cells and its regulation by n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids
, 1995 Catenins (alpha, beta, and gamma) are a group of proteins linking E-cadherin with the cytoskeleton. Reduced expression of alpha catenin has been shown in some cancer lines and tissues and is related to the invasive nature of tumour cells.

Computational modeling of the interplay between cadherin-mediated cell adhesion and Wnt signaling pathway. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Wnt signaling and cadherin-mediated adhesion have been implicated in both processes of embryonic development and the progression of carcinomas. Recent experimental studies revealed that Wnt signaling and cadherin-mediated cell adhesion have close ...

Exchange of catenins in cadherin–catenin complex [PDF]
Oncogene, 2003 beta-Catenin is an intracellular multifunctional protein. In complex with the transmembrane adhesive receptor E-cadherin, it becomes plasma membrane-associated and mediates intercellular adhesion. A cytosolic pool of beta-catenin interacts with DNA-binding proteins and participates in signal transduction. To reveal the possible cross-talk between these
