T‐cadherin loss induces an invasive phenotype in human keratinocytes and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) cells in vitro and is associated with malignant transformation of cutaneous SCC in vivo

Background  Cadherins play important roles in controlling keratinocyte growth, differentiation and survival. Atypical glycosylphosphatidylinositol‐anchored T‐cadherin (T‐cad) is highly expressed in the basal keratinocyte layer of skin. The role of T‐cad in keratinocyte biology and pathology is unclear.
