Remote Activation of Wnt Signaling and Cell Proliferation by E-cadherin Magnetomechanical Stimulation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A pioneering magnetogenetic toolkit enables non‐invasive, precise spatiotemporal modulation of intracellular Wnt/β‐catenin signaling. Functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs@E/EC15) target cellular E‐cadherins to generate localized magnetomechanical forces under low‐intensity magnetic fields.

Misregulated E-cadherin expression associated with an aggressive brain tumor phenotype. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Cadherins are essential components of the adherens junction complexes that mediate cell-cell adhesion and regulate cell motility. During tissue morphogenesis, changes in cadherin expression (known as cadherin switching) are a common mechanism for ...

Recycling of E-Cadherin [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 1999
E-Cadherin plays critical roles in many aspects of cell adhesion, epithelial development, and the establishment and maintenance of epithelial polarity. The fate of E-cadherin once it is delivered to the basolateral cell surface, and the mechanisms which govern its participation in adherens junctions, are not well understood. Using surface biotinylation

E-cadherin expression in thymomas

open access: yesYonsei Medical Journal, 1998
For the purpose of investigating the pattern of E-cadherin (E-CD) expression in thymomas, 72 cases were immunostained using monoclonal antibody (HECD-1) and microwave-enhanced immunohistochemical method on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections. The thymomas were classified according to modified Müller-Hermelink classification.

Progression of oral squamous cell carcinoma accompanied with reduced E-cadherin expression but not cadherin switch.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The cadherin switch from E-cadherin to N-cadherin is considered as a hallmark of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition and progression of carcinomas. Although it enhances aggressive behaviors of adenocarcinoma cells, the significance and role of cadherin

Expression of E-, P- and N-Cadherin and Its Clinical Significance in Cervical Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Precancerous Lesions. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Aberrant expression of classical cadherins has been observed in tumor invasion and metastasis, but its involvement in cervical carcinogenesis and cancer progression is not clear.

Covalent and density-controlled surface immobilization of E-cadherin for adhesion force spectroscopy.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
E-cadherin is a key cell-cell adhesion molecule but the impact of receptor density and the precise contribution of individual cadherin ectodomains in promoting cell adhesion are only incompletely understood.

Regulation of classical cadherin membrane expression and F-actin assembly by alpha-catenins, during Xenopus embryogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Alpha (α)-E-catenin is a component of the cadherin complex, and has long been thought to provide a link between cell surface cadherins and the actin skeleton.

Dynamics and Stability of E-Cadherin Dimers [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2006
The extracellular domains of cadherins are known to play a major role in cell adhesion, although the structures involved in this process remain unclear. We have used molecular dynamics to characterize the conformational and thermodynamic properties of two of the dimer interfaces identified in E-cadherin crystals and involving the two outermost ...

N-terminal 1-54 amino acid sequence and Armadillo repeat domain are indispensable for P120-catenin isoform 1A in regulating E-cadherin. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
P120-catenin (p120ctn) exerts important roles in regulating E-cadherin and invasiveness in cancer cells. However, the mechanisms by which p120ctn isoforms 1 and 3 modulate E-cadherin expression are poorly understood.
