We review the role of cadherins and cadherin-related proteins in human cancer. Cellular
and animal models for human cancer are also dealt with whenever appropriate. E-cadherin …

In addition to their adhesive functions, cell-adhesion molecules modulate signal-
transduction pathways by interacting with molecules such as receptor tyrosine kinases …

When cultured at an air–liquid interface (ALI) in the appropriate medium, primary human
airway epithelial cells form a polarized, pseudostratified epithelium composed of ciliated and …

Diabetic patients are at high risk of developing delayed cutaneous wound healing.
Adiponectin plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of diabetes and is considered to be …

Skin cancer represents the most common type of cancer among Caucasians and presents in
two main forms: melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC). NMSC is an umbrella …

We review the evidence suggesting the involvement of Cadherin 13 (CDH13, T‐cadherin, H‐
cadherin) in various cancers. CDH13 is an atypical member of the cadherin family, devoid of …

The body shape of a pig is the most direct production index, which can fully reflect the pig's
growth status and is closely related to important economic traits. In this study, a genome …

There is increasing acknowledgment of the public health burden of metabolic syndrome.
The metabolic syndrome is defined as emerging cardiovascular risk factors, or …

Cadherins are a superfamily of transmembrane proteins that mediate calcium-dependent
intercellular adhesion. T-cadherin (T-cad, H-cadherin or cadherin-13) is an atypical member …

During inflammation, vascular permeability is increased by various proteolytic events, such
as the generation of bradykinin, that augment local tissue responses by enabling tissue …
