The Ca 2ϩ -dependent cell-cell adhesion molecules, termed cadherins, are subdivided into several subclasses. E (epithelial)-and P (placental)-cadherins are involved in the selective adhesion of epidermal cells. E-cadherin is expressed on the cell surfaces of all epidermal layers and P-cadherin is e

Pericytes are a very important cellular constituent of the blood-brain barrier. They play a regulatory role in brain angiogenesis, endothelial cell tight junction formation, blood-brain barrier differentiation, as well as contribute to the microvascular vasodynamic capacity and structural stability.

## Abstract The integrity of epithelia depends largely on specialised adhesive structures, the adherens junctions. Several of the components required for building these structures are highly conserved between vertebrates and insects (e.g. E‐cadherin and α‐ and β‐catenin), while others have so far b

Tight junctions (TJ) and adherens junctions (AJ) regulate cell-cell adhesion and barrier function of simple polarized epithelia. These junctions are positioned in the apical end of the lateral plasma membrane and form the socalled apical junctional complex (AJC). Although initially seen as purely st
