Abstract | INTRODUCTION: Cadherins are transmembrane glycoproteins that mediate calcium-dependent cell adhesion. Recent studies suggest that cadherins also have nonadhesive functions. Maturation of human intervertebral disk (IVD) as well as early events of IVD degeneration in a mouse model1 is associated with segregation of nucleus pulposus (NP) cells suggesting that disk degeneration may be associated with cell adhesion molecule activities. From our microarray data analysis and subsequent immunohistochemical assays, we have revealed specific expression of Cdh2 gene and its product, cadherin 2/N-cadherin, in rodent notochordal NP cells, suggesting a potential regulatory role of cadherins in IVD homeostasis. Cadherin 2 belongs to the classic cadherin family. To date, the exp... |
