“…At the molecular levels, it has been suggested that GnT-III and the bisecting GlcNAc play roles in cell adhesion and migration by altering the N-glycans in adhesion molecules and the extracellular matrix such as E-cadherin, laminin, and integrin (Gu & Taniguchi, 2008;Isaji et al, 2004;Kariya et al, 2008;Kariya, Kawamura, Tabei, & Gu, 2010;Kitada et al, 2001;Pinho et al, 2012Pinho et al, , 2011Sato et al, 2009;Yoshimura, Ihara, Matsuzawa, & Taniguchi, 1996;Zhao et al, 2006). The expression of GnT-III was found to be upregulated by E-cadherin-mediated cell adhesion.…”
