- VE-cadherin and endothelial adherens junctions: active guardians of vascular integrity. (2013, unknown): “, 1998), and Eplin (Abe and Takeichi, 2008), can also bind a-catenin.”
- Adherens junction: molecular architecture and regulation. (2009, unknown): “The circumferential actin belt disappears, being converted to radially oriented actin filaments, indicating that EPLIN is important not only for the linkage between cadherin and F-actin but also for stabilizing this unique configuration of actin fibers (Abe and Takeichi 2008).”
- EMT, the cytoskeleton, and cancer cell invasion (2009, background): “One protein replacing α-catenin in the E-cadherin/β-catenin complex to SAJ could be eplin, a newly identified actin-binding protein [26].”
- Interplay of cadherin-mediated cell adhesion and canonical Wnt signaling. (2010, background): “b-Catenin forms a direct link between cadherins and a-catenin, whereas a-catenin also talks with the actin cytoskeleton (Rimm et al. 1995; Drees et al. 2005; Yamada et al. 2005; Abe and Takeichi 2008).”
- Cadherins and cancer: how does cadherin dysfunction promote tumor progression? (2008, background): “Alternatively, a-catenin may indirectly couple cadherins to actin filaments through proteins such as EPLIN (Abe and Takeichi, 2008), though a-catenin can also modulate actin filament nucleation in a cadherin-independent manner (Drees et al.”
- Vinculin potentiates E-cadherin mechanosensing and is recruited to actin-anchored sites within adherens junctions in a myosin II–dependent manner (2010, unknown): “S1, E-cadherin, -, -, p120-catenin, and EPLIN (Abe and Takeichi, 2008) are localized at similar levels in steady-state and HGF-stimulated cell–cell adhesions.”
