Abstract Papillary Thyroid Cancer (PTC) is the most common type of thyroid cancer. The
membrane-associated glycoprotein cadherin-16 (CDH16) plays a significant role in the …

Abstract Cadherin‑16 (CDH16), a member of the cadherin family of adhesion molecules,
serves an important role in the formation and maintenance of the thyroid follicular lumen …

Objective Thyroid cancer has the highest prevalence among the cancer types that affect the
endocrine system; however, its molecular mechanisms are not yet determined. Cadherin-16 …

Abstract Cadherin-16 (CDH16) plays a role in the embryonal development in kidney and
thyroid. Downregulation of CDH16 RNA was found in papillary carcinomas of the thyroid. To …

Background: Placental-Cadherin (CDH3), a cell adhesion molecule, is associated with the
function of cells to bind with other cells and the extracellular matrix (ECM). CDH3 is highly …

Background Although the long-term prognosis of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is favorable,
distant metastasis significantly compromises the prognosis and quality of life for patients with …

Cadherin (CDH) 16/kidney-specific-cadherin was first described as a kidney-specific
adhesion molecule and thereafter found expressed also in the thyroid gland. We show here …

Abstract Protocadherin 8 (PCDH8), a calcium-dependent transmembrane protein in the
protocadherin family, regulates cell adhesion and signal transduction. While some studies …

Modifications in adhesion molecules profile may change the way tumor cells interact with the
surrounding microenvironment. The Cadherin family is a large group of transmembrane …

The transdifferentiation of epithelial cells toward a mesenchymal condition (EMT) is a
complex process that allows tumor cells to migrate to ectopic sites. Cadherins are not just …
