Phosphatase Regenerating Liver3 and ECadherin Expression in Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

open access: yesIndonesian Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2016
Objective: To determine the expression of Phosphatase Regenerating Liver-3 (PRL-3) and E-Cadherin in the epithelial ovarian cancer on various stages and differentiation grades. Method: This was a cross-sectional study design conducted at Obstetrics

E‐cadherin: From epithelial glue to immunological regulator [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, 2013
E‐cadherin is best known as a central molecule in adherens junctions, joining adjacent epithelial cells together, thereby safeguarding epithelial barrier function. However, recent findings have uncovered an immunological role for this adhesion molecule, linked to its expression in dendritic cells (DCs) and alternatively activated macrophages (MPHs) and

E-cadherin: A determinant molecule associated with ovarian cancer progression, dissemination and aggressiveness. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Ovarian cancer (OC) is the fifth cancer death cause in women worldwide. The malignant nature of this disease stems from its unique dissemination pattern.

Epithelial‐cadherin Gene Is Not Mutated in Ductal Carcinomas of the Breast [PDF]

open access: yesJapanese Journal of Cancer Research, 1995
We investigated mutations of the epithelial (E)‐cadherin gene and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at flanking loci using three microsatellite markers on the long arm of chromosome 16 in 25 ductal carcinomas of the breast. Expression of E‐cadherin was also investigated immunohistochemically. No mutations were detected in exons 6 through 9 of the E‐cadherin

The comprehensive role of E-cadherin in maintaining prostatic epithelial integrity during oncogenic transformation and tumor progression.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2019
E-cadherin complexes with the actin cytoskeleton via cytoplasmic catenins and maintains the functional characteristics and integrity of the epithelia in normal epithelial tissues.

Interactions and Feedbacks in E-Cadherin Transcriptional Regulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Epithelial tissues rely on the adhesion between participating cells to retain their integrity. The transmembrane protein E-cadherin is the major protein that mediates homophilic adhesion between neighbouring cells and is, therefore, one of the critical ...

Epithelial Viscoelasticity Is Regulated by Mechanosensitive E-cadherin Turnover [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2019
Studying how epithelia respond to mechanical stresses is key to understanding tissue shape changes during morphogenesis. Here, we study the viscoelastic properties of the Drosophila wing epithelium during pupal morphogenesis by quantifying mechanical stress and cell shape as a function of time.

GALNT3 Maintains the Epithelial State in Trophoblast Stem Cells

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: O-GalNAc glycosylation is initiated in the Golgi by glycosyltransferases called GALNTs. Proteomic screens identified >600 O-GalNAc-modified proteins, but the biological relevance of these modifications has been difficult to determine.

E-Cadherin in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma: A Multifaceted Actor during EMT

open access: yesCells, 2020
Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a step-wise process observed in normal and tumor cells leading to a switch from epithelial to mesenchymal phenotype.

E‐Cadherin/β‐Catenin Complex and the Epithelial Barrier [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2011
E‐Cadherin/β‐catenin complex plays an important role in maintaining epithelial integrity and disrupting this complex affect not only the adhesive repertoire of a cell, but also the Wnt‐signaling pathway. Aberrant expression of the complex is associated with a wide variety of human malignancies and disorders of fibrosis resulting from epithelial ...
