Function
Calcium-dependent cell adhesion protein; preferentially mediates homotypic cell-cell adhesion by dimerization with a CDH2 chain from another cell. Cadherins may thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types. Acts as a regulator of neural stem cells quiescence by mediating anchorage of neural stem cells to ependymocytes in the adult subependymal zone: upon cleavage by MMP24, CDH2-mediated anchorage is affected, leading to modulate neural stem cell quiescence. Plays a role in cell-to-cell junction formation between pancreatic beta cells and neural crest stem (NCS) cells, promoting the formation of processes by NCS cells (By similarity). Required for proper neurite branching. Required for pre- and postsynaptic organization (By similarity). CDH2 may be involved in neuronal recognition mechanism. In hippocampal neurons, may regulate dendritic spine density.

PC-3 cells Prostate carcinoma Homo sapiens CVCL_0035
In Vivo Model
Pancreatic-specific gpx4 knockout mice were produced and identified in our laboratory by crossing floxed Gpx4 (a gift from Dr. Qitao Ran, UT Health San Antonio) and Pdx1-Cre (the Jackson Laboratory, 014647) transgenic mice (C57BL/6J background). For cerulein-induced acute pancreatitis, female mice (8-10 weeks) received seven hourly i.p. injections of 50 ug/kg cerulein in sterile saline. We repeatedly administered iHPCAL1 by i.p. at a dose of 10 mg/kg to mice at 3 and 12 h after the first cerulein injection, while controls were treated by administration with vehicle. The parameters of acute pancreatitis were assessed 12 h after the last cerulein treatment.

Response regulation HPCAL1 as a specific autophagy receptor provides the first mechanistic understanding of how CDH2 is selectively delivered to phagophores, leading to CDH2 degradation for the induction of ferroptosis. The genetic or pharmacological inhibition of HPCAL1 prevented ferroptosis-induced tumor suppression and pancreatitis in suitable mouse models.
