CDH1 encodes a protein that is a calcium-dependent cell adhesion molecule, playing a role in cell-cell adhesion, mobility, and proliferation in epithelial cells. It acts as a potent invasive suppressor and serves as a ligand for integrin alpha-E/beta-7. The protein contributes to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types due to its homophilic interactions. E-Cad/CTF2, a product of CDH1, promotes the non-amyloidogenic degradation of Abeta precursors and strongly inhibits the production of APP C99 and C83. Additionally, in the context of microbial infection, it functions as a receptor for Listeria monocytogenes, with internalin A binding to it to promote bacterial uptake.

E-cadherin contains a number of cleavage sites which may yield a complex fragmentation pattern in WB. Multiple bands between ~80-120 kDa may be observed. This antibody has been tested on human samples in both WB and IHC. Customer feedback (see Abreview) suggests the antibody does not perform well in IHC on mouse tissue.

E-Cadherin sometimes called CDH1 or Cadherin-1 is a protein that plays a role in cell-to-cell adhesion. This transmembrane protein has a molecular weight of approximately 120 kDa. E-Cadherin is mainly expressed in epithelial tissues of various organs including the skin and gut. Its adhesive function is made possible by its extracellular domain that facilitates homophilic binding between cells contributing to the maintenance of tissue architecture and cellular integrity.
E-Cadherin participates in establishing and maintaining adherens junctions which are vital for tissue structure. E-Cadherin operates as a core component of the cadherin-catenin complex which links the protein to the actin cytoskeleton. Through this linkage E-Cadherin plays an important role in signaling pathways that influence cellular growth and differentiation. The protein's ability to mediate intercellular connections also regulates cellular motility and supports basic aspects of cell behavior in epithelial tissues.
E-Cadherin influences both the Wnt signaling pathway and the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Within the Wnt signaling pathway E-Cadherin partners with β-catenin a significant player in transcription regulation and cell signaling. Disruption in E-Cadherin's adhesive functionality can lead to increased β-catenin availability affecting downstream transcriptional control. In the EMT process E-Cadherin loss characterizes an important step in which cells gain migratory and invasive properties typically seen during metastasis in cancer progression.
E-Cadherin's role is prominent in cancer particularly in the context of gastric and breast cancers. Mutations or altered expression of E-Cadherin lead to diminished cell adhesion promoting tumorigenesis and metastatic spread. In gastric cancer for instance mutated E-Cadherin often associates with loss of epithelial function facilitating cancer cell dissemination. Additionally its loss or dysfunction may correlate with proteins such as β-catenin further impacting cancer progression and pathology.

Terms & Conditions.
Overlay histogram showing MCF7 cells stained with ab224960 (red line). The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab224960, 1/500 dilution) for 30 min at 22°C.
Isotype control antibody (black line) was Rabbit IgG (monoclonal) Allophycocyanin (APC Rabbit IgG, monoclonal [EPR25A] - Isotype Control ab232814) used at the same concentration and conditions as the primary antibody. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control.
Acquisition of >5,000 events were collected using a 40 mW Red laser (640nm) and 670/14 bandpass filter.
