Bowman's β-Catenin [PDF]

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2012
Wnt/ β -catenin signaling plays a significant role during kidney development and maturation.[1][1][][2]–[3][3] β -Catenin, the canonical Wnt signal transducer, is involved in nephron induction[4][4],[5][5] and branching morphogenesis.[1][1],[6][6] Importantly, β -catenin modulation is ...

Adherens junctions remain dynamic

BMC Biology, 2010
One of the four principal categories of cell-cell junctions that hold together and shape distinct tissues and organs in vertebrates, adherens junctions (AJs) form cell-cell contacts that connect transmembrane proteins with cytoskeletal actin filaments to

Loss of ctnnd2b affects neuronal differentiation and behavior in zebrafish

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
Delta-catenin (CTNND2) is an adhesive junction associated protein belonging to the family of p120 catenins. The human gene is located on the short arm of chromosome 5, the region deleted in Cri-du-chat syndrome (OMIM #123450). Heterozygous loss of CTNND2

Beta-catenin in disease

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology, 2016
In continuation with the previous review on "β-catenin in health", in this review we discuss the role of β-catenin in the pathogenesis of common oral lesions in the oral and maxillofacial region- oral potentially malignant disorders, their progression to oral squamous cell carcinoma, salivary gland tumors and odontogenic tumours.

Alpha-catenins control cardiomyocyte proliferation by regulating Yap activity

, 2015
Rationale: Shortly after birth, muscle cells of the mammalian heart lose their ability to divide. Thus, they are unable to effectively replace dying cells in the injured heart.

NDRG2 Regulates the Expression of Genes Involved in Epithelial Mesenchymal Transition of Prostate Cancer Cells [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2019
Background: Metastasis is the main cause of prostate cancer (PCa) death. The inhibitory effect of N-myc downstream-regulated gene 2 (NDRG2) on the invasiveness properties of PCa cells has been demonstrated previously.

The inner CSF–brain barrier: developmentally controlled access to the brain via intercellular junctions.

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2015
In the adult the interface between the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and the brain is lined by the ependymal cells, which are joined by gap junctions. These intercellular connections do not provide a diffusional restrain between the two compartments. However
