    Glossary Cadherin

    proteins that help cells stick together in tissues

    Cadherins are a type of protein found on the surface of cells that help them stick together, playing a crucial role in maintaining the structure and function of tissues. They are essential for processes like cell signaling, tissue formation, and wound healing, and their dysfunction can be linked to conditions such as cancer and certain types of hair loss, including alopecia.
