Examples
-
It is expected that inhibition of N-cadherin would have the same the effect in cancer cells, which also move in groups during metastasis.
-
Scientists blocked surface molecules, proteins called N-cadherin, on the neural crest cells that are involved in forming contacts between cells.
-
Green, mCD8-GFP, labeling LN processes; red, synaptotagmin-HA, a marker for presynaptic terminals; blue, nc82 or N-cadherin staining, highlighting glomerular structures.
-
(DOR) promotes the processing of Aβ precursor protein (APP) by BACE1 and γ-secretase, but not that of Notch, N-cadherin or APLP.
-
The altered cell survival induced by N-cadherin overexpression is Wnt - and PI3K/Akt-dependent.
-
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
-
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.
-
Finally, we found that the decreased cell survival induced by N-cadherin overexpression was reversed by Wnt and antagonized by PI3K inhibition.
-
Mechanisms by which N-cadherin decreases cell survival.
-
The Wnt inhibitor DKK1 abolishes ERK and PI3K signalling restored by N-cadherin blockade.
