One of the major constituents of the cell-adhesion complex in epithelial cells is E-cadherin, a transmembrane protein involved in homotypic cell–cell adhesion. E-cadherin exerts a potent ...

E-cadherin is a transmembrane glycoprotein involved in epithelial cell adhesion. In cancer, downregulation of this protein enhances tumor cell dissociation, thereby increasing the risk of ...

[15] Increased staining along with disease stage was found for the adherens junction proteins E-cadherin and beta-catenin. In normal squamous epithelium and condyloma membrane staining at adherens ...
