... included in the study cohort. After immunohistochemical (IHC) evaluation of E-cadherin and β-Catenin expression, association with clinical, histopathological and survival was assessed by univariate analysis, multivariate analysis, and Kaplan-Meier-analysis. Cancer-specific survival (CSS) rates and overall...

... and immunohistochemical data of E-cadherin (E-cad) expression in 116 patients with pT3 UCB after RC in our single-center series. Multivariable Cox regression models including substaged pT3 established clinicopathological features, and the expression of the predictive immunohistochemical feature E-cad was used to identify...

...C. Vasconcelos-Nóbrega; C. Costa; H. Vala; A. Colaço; L. Santos; C. Lopes; P.A. Oliveira Background: E-cadherin and β-catenin are adhesion molecules that promote integrity and stability of the urothelium. A decrease in their expression is associated with more aggressive tumour phenotypes...

...Paraskevi Lazari; Hercules Poulias; Hariklia Gakiopoulou; Geogia-Heleni Thomopoulou; Calypso Barbatis; Andreas C. Lazaris Introduction: CD44s, E-cadherin and β-catenin are cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) and appear to influence organ development, inflammation, cancer invasion and metastasis. We...

... and reduced E-cadherin (E-cad) expression was described. Syndecan-1 (Sdc-1) has a critical role in kidney development. Materials and Methods: Ten multicystic dysplastic kidneys (MCDKs) were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and immunohistochemistry was performed using Wnt-1, E-cad and Sdc-1 antibodies. Eight...

.... E-cadherin (CDH-1) is one of the cellular junction proteins related to the integrity of epithelial cells. Our aim was to investigate a polymorphism of the CDH-1 gene 3′-UTR as a possible genetic marker in the search for the genetic causes. Materials and Methods: 148 patients with calcium oxalate...

...Toshihiro Saito; Akiyoshi Katagiri; Ryusuke Watanabe; Toshiki Tanikawa; Takashi Kawasaki; Yoshihiko Tomita; Kota Takahashi E-cadherin (ECD) is a homophilic Ca 2+ -dependent adhesion molecule associated with cell-to-cell interactions and normal growth. Recent reports have suggested that decrease...
