								It is expected that inhibition of N-cadherin would have the same the effect in cancer cells, which also move in groups during metastasis. PhysOrg.com - latest science and technology news stories 2010

								To determine the functional relevance of these findings, we tested the effects of ERK and PI3K inhibitors on cell proliferation induced by Wnt. As shown in N-cadherin overexpression negatively regulates ERK and PI3K signalling. PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles Eric Haÿ et al. 2009

								Finally, we found that the decreased cell survival induced by N-cadherin overexpression was reversed by Wnt and antagonized by PI3K inhibition. PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles Eric Haÿ et al. 2009

								The altered cell survival induced by N-cadherin overexpression is Wnt - and PI3K/Akt-dependent. PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles Eric Haÿ et al. 2009

								Tibias from 1.5 month old female N-cadherin transgenic and wild type mice and primary osteoblasts isolated from calvarias by sequential collagenase digestion were obtained as described PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles Eric Haÿ et al. 2009
