Details for receptor: T-cadherin

EndoNet ID: ENR01008

To link to the content of EndoNet use the EndoNet ID that is given on the detail pages in the format ENX0000, where X is a place holder for the type of the component (e. g. R for receptor or C for anatomical structure).
As URL for the linking append this ID to the detail page for this type of component.
For an hormone that would be:

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/hormone/ENH00000

It is also possible to use the search of EndoNet to link to the right detail page. The URL should look like

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/search/ENC00000
If the search pattern is unambigious the user is directed to the corresponding detail page.

General information

  • T-cadherin is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored extracellular protein, it may act as a coreceptor for an as-yet-unidentified signaling receptor through which adiponectin transmits metabolic signals. [1]
  • T-cadherin is a receptor for the hexameric and high-molecular-weight species of adiponectin but not for the trimeric or globular species. [1]
  • T-cadherin is expressed in endothelial and smooth muscle cells, where it is positioned to interact with adiponectin. [1]
  • T-Cadherin binds Adiponectin and is necessary for Adiponectin-mediated cardioprotection in mice [2]
