The caveolin proteins
TM Williams, MP Lisanti - Genome biology, 2004 - Springer
The caveolin gene family has three members in vertebrates: caveolin-1, caveolin-2, and
caveolin-3. So far, most caveolin-related research has been conducted in mammals, but the …

Downregulation of caveolin-1 function by EGF leads to the loss of E-cadherin, increased transcriptional activity of β-catenin, and enhanced tumor cell invasion
EGF receptor (EGFR) overexpression correlates with metastasis in a variety of carcinomas,
but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. We demonstrated that EGF disrupted …

Caveolae and signalling in cancer
UE Martinez-Outschoorn, F Sotgia, MP Lisanti - Nature reviews Cancer, 2015 - nature.com
It has been over 20 years since the discovery that caveolar lipid rafts function as signalling
organelles. Lipid rafts create plasma membrane heterogeneity, and caveolae are the most …
