N-Cadherin Antibody (13A9)

Immunocytochemistry: N-Cadherin Antibody (13A9) [NBP1-48309] - Immunostaining of original tumor, low passage, and high passage KCI-MENG1 cells. The original patient-derived tumor (top row) showed moderate and patchy immunoreactivity for epithelial membrane antigen (EMA); strong and diffuse immunostaining for progesterone receptor (PR); and a Ki-67 proliferative index of 2-3%. There was also strong immunostaining for N-cadherin and vimentin. KCI-MENG1-LP cells (middle row) and KCI-MENG1-HP cells (bottom row) maintained expression of EMA, N-cadherin, and vimentin but had significantly reduced PR expression compared to the original tumor. Whereas Ki-67 labeling was found in only a small number of cells in the original tumor and low passage cells, it was positive in virtually all P84 cells. Scale bar 50 um.

Immunocytochemistry: N-Cadherin Antibody (13A9) [NBP1-48309] - Human meningioma mouse xenograft model KCI-MENG1-LPSX generated with the spontaneously immortal cell line KCI-MENG1-LP. Tumors from immunocompromised SCID mice were dissected and the derivative cell line KCI-MENG1-LPSX CL was generated. The EMA, PR, and N-cadherin IHC of the mouse tumor highly resembled the original patient-derived tumor. The vimentin- and Ki-67-stained cells in the mouse tumor tissue were markedly more abundant and more intensely stained than in the original tumor. KCI-MENG1-LPSX CL cells displayed the same patterns of immunostaining as the high passage parent cell line KCI-MENG1-HP, including the loss of PR staining. Scale bar 50 um.

Background

N-cadherin (neuronal cadherin; or CDH2/cadherin 2) is a calcium-binding, single pass transmembrane cell adhesion molecule (CAM) that was originally believed to be expressed only by neural cells, but subsequently demonstrated in endothelial cells and pericytes of microvessels, as well as in a variety of poorly differentiated carcinomas. N-cadherin is found in many different types of intercellular junctions, such as adherens junctions and pericyte-endothelial cell junctions, as well as being distributed on the cell surface in non-junctional complexes. It interacts with CDCP1 and forms a part of complex containing FGFR4, NCAM1, CDH2, PLCG1, FRS2, SRC, SHC1, GAP43 and CTTN. It also Interact with PCDH8 and TAOK2, and the interaction with PCDH8 leads to internalization through TAOK2/p38 MAPK pathway. N-cadherin promotes the formation of stable intercellular junctions and in addition to mediating cell adhesion, it has several other functions such as activation of FGFR, promotion of vascular smooth muscle and cancer cell migration as well as neurite outgrowth on astrocytes, and contrastingly, inhibits Schwann cell migration on astrocytes. Alongwith vimentin, N-cadherin has emerged as an important marker of EMT in embryonic development and carcinogenic progression.
