E-cadherin is synthesized as a precursor and then undergoes cleavage by proprotein convertases. This processing is essential for E-cadherin maturation and cell adhesion. Loss of cell adhesion causes detachment-induced apoptosis, which is called anoikis. Anoikis can be inhibited despite loss of cell-matrix interactions by preserving E-cadherin-mediated cell-cell adhesion. Conversely, acute loss ...
E-cadherin, a 120 kDa transmembrane protein, plays an important role in malignant progression and tumour differentiation. The loss or reduction in E-cadherin expression has been found in several tumours including laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma. The present study aimed to investigate the prognostic implications of changes in expression of the E-cadherin in laryngeal carcinoma. E-cadherin expr...
E-cadherin is an important adhesion molecule whose loss is associated with progression and poor prognosis of liver cancer. However, it is unclear whether the loss of E-cadherin is a real culprit or a bystander in liver cancer progression. In addition, the precise role of E-cadherin in maintaining liver homeostasis is also still unknown, especially in vivo. Here we demonstrate that liver-specifi...
Cadherins mediate homotypic adhesion between lineage-related cells in epithelia and other tissues. One cadherin, E-cadherin, is also responsible for adhesion of murine epidermal Langerhans cells to keratinocytes in vitro, and may play a role in the localization of Langerhans cells in epidermis. The thymus is another tissue in which important adhesive interactions between bone marrow-derived cel...
E-cadherin is a transmembrane glycoprotein that mediates calcium-dependent, homotypic cell-cell adhesion and plays a role in maintaining the normal phenotype of epithelial cells. Decreased expression of E-cadherin has been correlated with increased invasiveness of breast cancer. In other systems, inappropriate expression of a nonepithelial cadherin, such as N-cadherin, by an epithelial cell has...
E-cadherin loss in cancer is associated with de-differentiation, invasion, and metastasis. Drosophila DE-cadherin is regulated by Wnt/beta-catenin signaling, although this has not been demonstrated in mammalian cells. We previously reported that expression of WNT7a, encoded on 3p25, was frequently downregulated in lung cancer, and that loss of E-cadherin or beta-catenin was a poor prognostic fe...
PURPOSE To determine whether retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells, which reportedly express N-cadherin as their major cadherin cell adhesion protein, also express the more common epithelial cadherin, E-cadherin. METHODS Cadherins expressed by human RPE cells in situ were examined by western blot analysis of extracts prepared from the RPE of human adult eyes. Cadherins expressed in vitro wer...
During epithelial tumor progression, the loss of E-cadherin expression and inappropriate expression of mesenchymal cadherins coincide with increased invasiveness. Reexpression experiments have established E-cadherin as an invasion suppressor. However, the mechanism by which E-cadherin suppresses invasiveness and the role of mesenchymal cadherins are poorly understood. We show that both p120 cat...
The integrity of the intestinal epithelial barrier depends on intercellular junctions that are highly regulated by numerous extracellular and intracellular factors. E-cadherin is found primarily at the adherens junctions in the intestinal mucosa and mediates strong cell-cell contacts that have a functional role in forming and regulating the epithelial barrier. Polyamines are necessary for E-cad...
E-cadherin localization to the zonula adherens is fundamental for epithelial differentiation but the mechanisms controlling localization are unclear. Using the Drosophila follicular epithelium we genetically dissect E-cadherin transport in an in vivo model. We distinguish three mechanisms mediating E-cadherin accumulation at the zonula adherens. Two membrane trafficking pathways deliver newly s...
