Background

Cadherins are a family of transmembrane glycoproteins that mediate calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion and play an important role in the maintenance of normal tissue architecture. N-cadherin (neural cadherin), also known as CDH2 (cadherin 2), is a classical member of the cadherin superfamily which also include E-, P-, R-, and B-cadherins. Expression of N-cadherin has been reported on various cell types including neurons, endothelial cells and cardiac myocytes (PMID: 11282032; 9508779; 8125202). N-cadherin has functions in early brain morphogenesis, synaptogenesis and synaptic plasticity (PMID: 23321619).
