Identifying potential binding sites of Nectin 4 for bespoke anti-cancer peptides
Nectin 4 is a cell adhesion protein found between epithelial and endothelial cells during embryogenesis; expression then falls to low levels during adulthood. However, Nectin 4 has also been shown to be over expressed in some of the deadliest/common cancer types of the bladder, pancreas, lung and …

Nectin-1 is Degraded in <em>Chlamydia trachomatis</em>-Infected Genital Epithelial Cells and is Required for Herpes Simplex Virus Co-Infection-Induced <em>C. trachomatis</em> Persistence.
… one of which is the host adhesion molecule nectin-1. Interestingly, Western blotting demonstrated that nectin-1 is significantly decreased in <em>C. trachomatis</em>-infected HeLa cells. Additional studies indicated that active <em>C. trachomatis</em> replication is required for nectin-1 …

Depletion of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid causes male infertility by disrupting both secretory granule biogenesis and adherens junction assembly in testis
… mislocalization of essential adhesion molecules nectin-2 and nectin-3 in animals deficient in both HUFAs. Further, the loss of nectin-2 localization in Sertoli cells was selective, with only Sertoli-spermatid contacts showing disruption, while Sertoli-Sertoli contacts of the Blood-testis barrier …
