Cadherin and Integrin Regulation of Epithelial Cell Migration [PDF]
These studies quantified the relative effects of E-cadherin expression and homophilic ligation on the integrin-mediated motility of epithelial cells. Micropatterned proteins were used to quantitatively titrate the ligation of E-cadherin and integrin receptors in order to assess their coordinate influence on the migration velocities of MDA-MB-231 breast

Als3 is a Candida albicans invasin that binds to cadherins and induces endocytosis by host cells. [PDF]
Candida albicans is the most common cause of hematogenously disseminated and oropharyngeal candidiasis. Both of these diseases are characterized by fungal invasion of host cells. Previously, we have found that C.

Clinical significance of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in laryngeal carcinoma: Its role in the different subsites [PDF]
Background: During epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, cancer cells lose adhesion capacity gaining migratory properties. The role of the process on prognosis has been evaluated in 50 cases of laryngeal carcinoma.

Reduced surface expression of epithelial E-cadherin evoked by interferon-gamma is Fyn kinase-dependent. [PDF]
Interferon gamma (IFNγ) is an important regulatory cytokine that can exert a pro-inflammatory effect in the gut, where it has been shown to increase epithelial permeability via disruption of the tight junctions.

Sphingomyelin metabolism is involved in the differentiation of MDCK cells induced by environmental hypertonicity [PDF]
Sphingolipids (SLs) are relevant lipid components of eukaryotic cells. Besides regulating various cellular processes, SLs provide the structural framework for plasma membrane organization.

Key signalling nodes in mammary gland development and cancer: the snail1-twist1 conspiracy in malignant breast cancer progression [PDF]
Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women, and despite significant advances in diagnosing and treating it, metastatic spread of cancer cells results in a high mortality rate. Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an embryonic program in
