Structural analysis and expression of human desmoglein: a cadherin-like component of the desmosome.
Desmosomes are adhesive cell junctions found in great abundance in tissues that experience mechanical stress. The transmembrane desmosomal glycoproteins have been proposed to play a role in cell adhesion; desmoglein I (DGI) is a major member of this class of desmosomal molecules. However, evidence supporting a role for DGI in cell adhesion or in the plaque is lacking. In order to begin to under...
متن کاملContributions of extracellular and intracellular domains of full length and chimeric cadherin molecules to junction assembly in epithelial cells.
The integrity of cell-cell junctions in epithelial cells depends on functional interactions of both extracellular and intracellular domains of cadherins with other junction proteins. To examine the roles of the different domains of E-cadherin and desmoglein in epithelial junctions, we stably expressed full length desmoglein 1 and chimeras of E-cadherin and desmoglein 1 in A431 epithelial cells....
متن کاملPI3K/AKT pathway regulates E-cadherin and Desmoglein 2 in aggressive prostate cancer
Reduced expression of both classical and desmosomal cadherins has been associated with different types of carcinomas, including prostate cancer. This study aims to provide a comprehensive view of the role and regulation of cell-cell adhesion in prostate cancer aggressiveness by examining the functional implications of both E-cadherin and Desmoglein 2 (DSG2). E-cadherin expression was first exam...
متن کاملDifferential Downregulation of E-Cadherin and Desmoglein by Epidermal Growth Factor
Modulation of cell : cell junctions is a key event in cutaneous wound repair. In this study we report that activation of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor disrupts cell : cell adhesion, but with different kinetics and fates for the desmosomal cadherin desmoglein and for E-cadherin. Downregulation of desmoglein preceded that of E-cadherin in vivo and in an EGF-stimulated in vitro wound ...
متن کاملDesmoglein 3, via an Interaction with E-cadherin, Is Associated with Activation of Src
BACKGROUND Desmoglein 3 (Dsg3), a desmosomal adhesion protein, is expressed in basal and immediate suprabasal layers of skin and across the entire stratified squamous epithelium of oral mucosa. However, increasing evidence suggests that the role of Dsg3 may involve more than just cell-cell adhesion. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS To determine possible additional roles of Dsg3 during epithelia...
