Alterations of E-cadherin and β-catenin in gastric cancer
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The E-cadherin-catenin complex plays a crucial role in epithelial cell-cell adhesion and in the maintenance of tissue architecture. Perturbation in the expression or function of this complex results in loss of intercellular adhesion,...
