E-cadherin is the major cell-cell adhesion molecule expressed by epithelial cells. Cadherins form a complex with three cytoplasmic proteins, ␣-, -, and ␥-catenin, and the interaction between them is crucial for anchoring the actin cytoskeleton to the intercellular adherens junctions. The invasive b
## Abstract Inhibition of angiogenesis by blocking angiogenic cytokines or their pathways has become a major target in experimental cancer therapies. This therapeutical approach requires a profound knowledge of growth factor profiles that contribute to tumor growth and progression. The respective k
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The endogenous opioid peptide, [Met^5^]‐enkephalin, termed opioid growth factor (OGF), interacts with its receptor (OGFr) to play a role as a constitutively expressed inhibitory growth factor in the proliferation of epithelial cells. This study compared protein and gene e
## Background: Serine proteases have important roles in tumor invasion and metastasis, and their inhibitors, serine protease inhibitors (serpins), are attractive targets for therapeutic strategies. on chromosome 18q21, there is a cluster of serpins: maspin, headpin, and squamous cell carcinoma anti
