A partial length recombinant E-cadherin protein (amino acids 438-556) was used as the immunogen for this antibody . |
Epithelial cadherin (E-cadherin) is a calcium dependent cell-cell adhesion glycoprotein. It is associated with gland formation, stratification, and epithelial polarization. Its deregulation affects cell-cell adhesion and results in increased invasiveness of distinct human carcinomas like gastric cancer, malignancy, oral squamous cell carcinoma, Atypical parathyroid adenoma (APA). Loss of function of E-cadherin leads to the disappearance of epithelial characteristics of the cells and generates higher invasiveness for extracellular matrices. E-cadherin expression is considered to be a decisive indicator for differentiation, aggressive behaviour, high proliferation, metastasis, poor prognosis and invasiveness of human carcinoma cells.
