Histone deacetylase inhibitors induce invasion of human melanoma cells in vitro via differential regulation of N-cadherin expression and RhoA activity [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) exert multiple cytotoxic actions on cancer cells. Currently, different synthetic HDACi are in clinical use or clinical trials; nevertheless, since both pro-invasive and anti-invasive activities have been

Krüppel-like factors in cancer progression: three fingers on the steering wheel [PDF]

, 2013
Kruppel-like factors (KLFs) comprise a highly conserved family of zinc finger transcription factors, that are involved in a plethora of cellular processes, ranging from proliferation and apoptosis to differentiation, migration and pluripotency.

Chlamydia trachomatis Infection Is Associated with E-Cadherin Promoter Methylation, Downregulation of E-Cadherin Expression, and Increased Expression of Fibronectin and α-SMA—Implications for Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017
Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct) can induce scarring disease of the ocular mucosa, known as trachoma, the most common infectious cause of blindness worldwide.

Zebrafish teeth as a model for repetitive epithelial morphogenesis: dynamics of E-cadherin expression [PDF]

, 2010
Background: The development of teeth is the result of interactions between competent mesenchyme and epithelium, both of which undergo extensive morphogenesis.

N-Cadherin Expression and Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in Pancreatic Carcinoma [PDF]

Clinical Cancer Research, 2004
Abstract Purpose: Loss of intercellular adhesion and increased cell motility promote tumor cell invasion. In the present study, E- and N-cadherin, members of the classical cadherin family, are investigated as inducers of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) that is thought to play a fundamental role during the early steps of ...

Form follows function: Morphological and immunohistological insights into epithelial–mesenchymal transition characteristics of tumor buds

Tumor Biology, 2017
In cancer biology, the architectural concept “form follows function” is reflected by cell morphology, migration, and epithelial–mesenchymal transition protein pattern. In vivo, features of epithelial–mesenchymal transition have been associated with tumor

CRISPR-Mediated VHL Knockout Generates an Improved Model for Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma. [PDF]

, 2016
Metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) is nearly incurable and accounts for most of the mortality associated with RCC. Von Hippel Lindau (VHL) is a tumour suppressor that is lost in the majority of clear cell RCC (ccRCC) cases.

CDC42 and Rac1 control different actin-dependent processes in the Drosophila wing disc epithelium. [PDF]

, 1995
Cdc42 and Rac1 are members of the rho family of small guanosinetriphosphatases and are required for a diverse set of cytoskeleton-membrane interactions in different cell types.

Snail2 directly represses cadherin6B during epithelial-to-mesenchymal transitions of the neural crest [PDF]

, 2007
The neural crest, a transient population of migratory cells, forms the craniofacial skeleton and peripheral nervous system, among other derivatives in vertebrate embryos. The transcriptional repressor Snail2 is thought to be crucial for the epithelial-to-

E-cadherin involvement in human lens epithelial cell transdifferentiation may be associated with N-cadherin

Molecular Medicine Reports, 2017
E-cadherin, β-catenin and N‑cadherin serve key roles in the epithelial‑to‑mesenchymal transition (EMT) that leads to human lens epithelial cell (LEC) transdifferentiation and subsequent cataract formation. The present study aimed to investigate the role of E‑cadherin in LEC transdifferentiation.
