“…We hypothesize that cell adhesion forces maintain the morphology of these rod-like constructs. Cadherins and desmosomes are well-known cell-cell adhesion proteins; 28,29 furthermore, it has been reported that integrins and hemidesmosomes work as cell-ECM adhesion proteins. 30,31 Our histological analysis did not find abundant ECM deposition in these constructs, indicating that cell-cell adhesion molecules such as E-cadherin maintained construct morphology, even after syringe processing.…”

“…Oral cancer is one of the most common malignancies in head and neck that de ned as any cancerous tissue growth located in the oral cavity [1]. According to the American Cancer Society, approximately 45,780 new cases and 8,650 cancer deaths attributed to this condition occur in 2015 in United States [2] Approximately 90% of oral neoplasms are oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), most of which are invasive growth, invasion of surrounding tissue and easy to occur lymph node metastasis [3,4].…”

“…[3] It is mainly expressed on epithelial cells and behaves as both receptor and ligand for other molecules and can be used as a marker for epithelial differentiation owing to limited expression to the cells of epithelial origin. In addition to that, E-cadherin has a major role in the morphogenesis of cells during migration and acts as tumor suppressor gene [4,5]. In some solid tumors, such as breast cancer, loss of E-cadherin function is often associated with tumor progression and transition to more invasive disease [6].…”
