Title: VE-cadherin status as an indicator of microvascular permeability. Author: Monaghan-Benson E, Burridge K. Journal: Methods Mol Biol; 2013; 1046():335-42. PubMed ID: 23868598. Abstract: VE-cadherin phosphorylation and binding partner status are important indicators of endothelial permeability. Here we describe several techniques aimed at discerning total tyrosine phosphorylation levels of VE-cadherin, VE-cadherin phosphorylation on specific tyrosine residues, and the ability of VE-cadherin to bind its binding partner beta-catenin. Taken together, these approaches to studying VE-cadherin status on microvascular endothelial cells are excellent complements to traditional permeability assays.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
