CD103 (αE Integrin) Undergoes Endosomal Trafficking in Human Dendritic Cells, but Does Not Mediate Epithelial Adhesion

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Dendritic cell (DC) expression of CD103, the α subunit of αEβ7 integrin, is thought to enable DC interactions with E-cadherin-expressing gastrointestinal epithelia for improved mucosal immunosurveillance.

WAVE2 regulates epithelial morphology and cadherin isoform switching through regulation of Twist and Abl. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Epithelial morphogenesis is a dynamic process that involves coordination of signaling and actin cytoskeletal rearrangements.We analyzed the contribution of the branched actin regulator WAVE2 in the development of 3-dimensional (3D) epithelial structures.

miR-200c sensitizes breast cancer cells to doxorubicin treatment by decreasing TrkB and Bmi1 expression. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Acquired resistance to classical chemotherapeutics is a major obstacle in cancer treatment. Doxorubicin is frequently used in breast cancer therapy either as single-agent or in combination with other drugs like docetaxel and cyclophosphamide.

Truncated E‐cadherin potentiates cell death in prostate epithelial cells [PDF]

open access: yesThe Prostate, 2005
AbstractBACKGROUNDE‐cadherin, a fundamental component of the adherens junction, is known to mediate aggregation‐dependent cell survival. We have previously identified a novel, calpain‐dependent proteolytic cleavage of E‐cadherin that resulted in the generation of a stable 100‐kDa E‐cadherin fragment (E‐cad100) in prostate epithelial cells in response ...

Clostridium perfringens Delta-Toxin Damages the Mouse Small Intestine

open access: yesToxins, 2019
Clostridium perfringens strains B and C cause fatal intestinal diseases in animals. The secreted pore-forming toxin delta-toxin is one of the virulence factors of the strains, but the mechanism of intestinal pathogenesis is unclear. Here, we investigated

Patterns in Space: Coordinating Adhesion and Actomyosin Contractility at E-cadherin Junctions

open access: yes, 2013
Cadherin adhesion receptors are fundamental determinants of tissue organization in health and disease. Increasingly, we have come to appreciate that classical cadherins exert their biological actions through active cooperation with the contractile actin ...

PRL-3 promotes epithelial mesenchymal transition by regulating cadherin directly [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Biology & Therapy, 2009
PRL-3 is a key gene associated with progression and metastasis of colorectal cancer. Recently PRL-3 was suggested to promote epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) by downregulating E-cadherin expression. But the mechanisms of EMT induced by PRL-3 remain largely unknown. Here we found that PRL-3 could also promote EMT in a colorectal cancer cell model

P-Cadherin Expression in Feline Mammary Tissues

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine International, 2012
The search for molecular markers in the feline mammary gland, namely, the adhesion molecules belonging to the cadherin family, is useful in the understanding of the development of mammary carcinomas in felines and humans.

Epithelial-mesenchymal interconversions in ovarian cancer: the levels and functions of E-cadherin in intraabdominal dissemination

open access: yesOncology Reviews, 2020
The metastatic process of ovarian cancer (OC) is almost exclusively defined by direct shedding of tumor cells into the abdominal cavity, followed by clustering into multicellular aggregates and posterior peritoneal anchorage.
