Mei et al., Carcinogenesis 2002
:
The sum effect of MMP inhibitors demonstrated that NO-induced activation of MMP may cause the degradation of E-cadherin and the subsequent dissociation of beta-catenin, thereby contributing to the cytosolic accumulation of beta-catenin and nuclear formation of beta-catenin/LEF-1 complex

E-Cadherin mediates MMP down-regulation in highly invasive bronchial tumor cells
Wang et al., Lin Chung Er Bi Yan Hou Tou Jing Wai Ke Za Zhi 2004
(Lymphatic Metastasis...) :
In the group of nasopharyngeal carcinoma with distant metastasis, the expression of E-cadherin and nm23H1 also increased and the expression of CD44H, MMP-3 and VEGF all increased Zhao et al., Cancer Lett 2013
(Neovascularization, Pathologic...) :
EA also reversed epithelial to mesenchymal transition by up-regulating E-cadherin and inhibiting the expression of Snail, MMP-2 and MMP-9
