Structure of Cadherins

The cadherins were one of the first cell adhesion molecules discovered; the term “cadherins” is based on their calcium-dependent adhering properties. The first cadherins discovered on the epithelial, neuronal, and placental cells were named E-cadherin, P-cadherin, and N-cadherin, respectively. These classical cadherins share sequence and structural similarities. Other cadherins, including those involved in cell signaling, are grouped into non-classical cadherins. This diversity of cadherins...

Purification of CD31+ Endothelial Precursor Cells Using Magnetic-Activated Cell Sorting

This video demonstrates a technique for purifying CD31+ endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) from a culture using magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS). The cell suspension is treated with a fluorophore-conjugated antibody that binds to CD31 on the EPCs. Completing the labeling of CD31+ EPCs involves adding an antibody complex, which binds to the fluorophores, and a polymer-coated magnetic nanoparticle, which binds to the antibody complex. The labeled cells are then purified using a magnetic...

Cadherins in Tissue Organization

The cadherins are a superfamily of cell adhesion molecules comprising over 180 variants, with specific tissues expressing a particular combination of cadherin types. Cadherins generally exhibit homophilic binding; i.e., cadherins on one cell bind to cadherins of the same or closely related type on another cell. Thus, cells of the same type have a specific affinity to bind to each other and sort themselves into clusters to form tissues. Cell Sorting During Development Cell sorting plays an...

The differentiation of white and beige adipocytes from adipose tissue vascular progenitors bears potential for metabolic improvement in obesity. We describe protocols for a CD34+CD31+ endothelial cell isolation from human fat and for a subsequent in vitro expansion and differentiation into white and beige adipocytes. Several downstream applications are discussed.

Herein we describe a procedure to capture live images of Drosophila gastrulation. This has enabled us to better understand the apical constriction involved in early development and further analyze mechanisms governing cellular movements during tissue structure modification.
FAQs
Using the three markers together provides complementary information rather than a single readout. CD31 helps identify endothelial cell interactions, VE-cadherin indicates the state of endothelial junctions and vascular integrity, and CD105 adds information about transforming growth factor-β-related vascular remodeling. In tumor sections, this combination can connect vessel identification with structural and signaling changes in the surrounding tumor microenvironment.
CD31 and VE-cadherin should not be treated as interchangeable endothelial readouts. CD31 is linked to cell adhesion and endothelial cell interactions, whereas VE-cadherin reflects endothelial junctions and vascular integrity. Interpreting them together can show both whether endothelial-associated structures are present and how their junctional organization may relate to vessel condition in tumor tissue.
CD105 adds a signaling-related dimension to endothelial profiling. As a co-receptor in transforming growth factor-β signaling, it is associated with vascular remodeling, so its expression can help researchers examine changes beyond vessel identification alone. In cancer studies, that information is relevant when tumor-associated vessels and their microenvironment are being evaluated for remodeling-related processes.
Researchers can use immunostaining to examine the distribution and expression of these endothelial-associated proteins in tumor tissue. The resulting profiles help distinguish blood vessels while also assessing junctional organization and remodeling-related features. This approach supports characterization of tumor vascularization and provides molecular context for changes occurring within the tumor microenvironment.
Expression patterns can help researchers assess angiogenesis and characterize how tumor-associated vessels differ in their endothelial features. CD31 contributes information about endothelial interactions, VE-cadherin relates to vascular integrity, and CD105 reflects remodeling-associated signaling. Evaluating these signals together can clarify changes in the vasculature and their relationship to the tumor microenvironment.
Because the markers report complementary endothelial features, they can be included in investigations of antiangiogenic therapies to examine changes in tumor vascularization. Immunostaining and endothelial profiling may show how vessel-associated structures, junctional integrity, and remodeling-related characteristics are altered in the tumor tissue, helping connect treatment studies with mechanisms that influence cancer progression.
