Overview of Gene Research
Cdh11, also known as cadherin-11 or OB-cadherin, is a classical cadherin belonging to a group of transmembrane proteins mainly located in adherens junctions. It mediates homophilic, Ca2+-dependent cell-cell adhesion, which is crucial for many aspects of human growth and development, and is involved in regulating stem cell fate decisions [1,4].
In disease research, knockout mouse models have provided significant insights. In pancreatic cancer, CDH11-knockout in p48-Cre;LSL-KrasG12D/+;LSL-Trp53R172H/+ (KPC) mice prolonged survival, as CDH11 expressed by cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promotes immunosuppression and extracellular matrix deposition to support tumor growth and gemcitabine resistance [5]. In liver fibrosis, CDH11-deficient mice showed decreased hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation in vitro and less liver fibrogenesis in response to chronic CCl4-induced damage, indicating that CDH11 promotes liver fibrosis by activating HSCs [2].
In conclusion, Cdh11 is essential for cell-cell adhesion and stem cell fate regulation. Its role in promoting pancreatic cancer growth and liver fibrosis as revealed by knockout mouse models emphasizes its potential as a therapeutic target in these disease areas. Additionally, Cdh11 may act as a tumor suppressor in some cancers like tongue squamous cell carcinoma and head and neck cancer, while promoting metastasis in others, highlighting its complex role in tumorigenesis [3,6].
