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

5-Azacytidine Enhancing Expression of E-cadherin in Adenocarcinoma Cell Line
Introduction: In this study, we assessed the expression of E-cadherin in HT29 cell line treated with 5-Azacytidine and colorectal cancer patient in an Iranian population. E-cadherin expression promotes metastasis and prognosis of colorectal cancer (CRC).

E-cadherin, guardian of liver physiology [PDF]
E-cadherin is a cell-to-cell adhesion molecule involved in epithelial cell behavior, tissue formation and cancer suppression. In the liver, E-cadherin is expressed by hepatocytes and biliary epithelial cells. However, the exact role of E-cadherin in hepatic pathophysiology remains largely unknown.

Endothelin-1 Drives Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition In Hypertensive Nephroangiosclerosis [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Tubulointerstitial fibrosis, the final outcome of most kidney diseases, involves activation of epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT). Endothelin‐1 (ET‐1) activates EMT in cancer cells, but it is not known whether it drives EMT in the kidney.

E-cadherin is transcriptionally activated via suppression of ZEB1 transcriptional repressor by small RNA-mediated gene silencing. [PDF]
RNA activation has been reported to be induced by small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) that act on the promoters of several genes containing E-cadherin. In this study, we present an alternative mechanism of E-cadherin activation in human PC-3 cells by siRNAs ...

E-cadherin expression in thymomas
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.

E-Cadherin Engagement Stimulates Tyrosine Phosphorylation [PDF]
Cadherins are cell adhesion molecules concentrated at intercellular adherens junctions, where they form a multiprotein complex with cytoplasmic catenins. Although cell-cell interactions affect many aspects of cell behavior, little is known about signaling pathways triggered by cadherin engagement.

PRL-3 and E-cadherin show mutual interactions and participate in lymph node metastasis formation in gastric cancer [PDF]
E-cadherin, a transmembrane adhesion molecule, and phosphatase of regenerating liver 3 (PRL-3) protein, a member of the family of tyrosine phosphatases, seem to be responsible for cancer cell migration.

Microtubules Inhibit E-Cadherin Adhesive Activity by Maintaining Phosphorylated p120-Catenin in a Colon Carcinoma Cell Model. [PDF]
Tight regulation of cadherin-mediated intercellular adhesions is critical to both tissue morphogenesis during development and tissue homeostasis in adults.
