Also known as Cadherin2 (CDH2).
N-cadherin is a type of cell adhesion molecule that plays a crucial role in the development and maintenance of tissue structure. In the context of cancer, N-cadherin has been implicated in the progression and metastasis of various types of tumors.
N-cadherin expression is increased in various types of cancer.
Normally, N-cadherin is expressed in mesenchymal cells, such as fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells. However, in cancer cells, N-cadherin expression is often upregulated, which can contribute to the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). EMT is a process by which epithelial cells acquire a more mesenchymal phenotype, which is characterized by increased motility, invasiveness, and resistance to apoptosis.
The expression of N-cadherin in cancer cells is closely associated with tumorigenesis and metastasis. Additionally, the soluble N-cadherin level in the serum of cancer patients is much higher than that in the serum of healthy patients, revealing a positive relation with poor prognosis.
NPC, Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC): Click to Expand ⟱
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma, or nasopharynx cancer, is the most common cancer originating in the nasopharynx, most commonly in the postero-lateral nasopharynx or pharyngeal recess, accounting for 50% of cases.
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a type of cancer that originates in the epithelial cells lining the nasopharynx, which is the upper part of the throat located behind the nose and above the soft palate.
-(NPC) is a malignant tumor which is commonly found in East Asia and Africa.
