(b) N-
cadherin is strongly present; (c-f) extracellular matrix typical markers of cartilage are shown throughout the spheroid area; (c) collagen type II; (d) collagen type VI; (e) aggrecan; (f) chondroitin sulfate.
Cadherins are thus a diverse class of molecules involved in many physiological functions, with diverse tissue-specific distributions [76].
Cadherins play distinctive roles in retinal regeneration.

Cadherins and cancer: how does
cadherin dysfunction promote tumor progression?
CDH17 is a unique member of the
cadherin superfamily regulating intercellular adhesion.
Convergence of Wnt, [beta]-catenin, and
cadherin pathways.
The observation that
cadherins play an important role in the establishment of the epithelial phenotype, cell migration, cell differentiation, and tumor dissemination has stimulated great interest in this family of adhesion molecules.
Cadherins are transmembrane proteins responsible for cell adhesion.
Testing for
cadherins might be one of those methods.
