p120 catenin reduction and cytoplasmic relocalization leads to dysregulation of E-cadherin in solid pseudopapillary tumors of the pancreas.

Solid pseudopapillary tumors (SPTs) of the pancreas have characteristic morphologic features and show consistent beta-catenin abnormalities and loss of E-cadherin protein. The loss of cell-to-cell adhesion is thought to contribute to frequent cystic degeneration and pseudopapillae formation. p120 re...
