  "summary": "A key mechanism of stabilization of Cadherin-based cell-cell adhesions is through a mechanically modulated interaction to cortical actin filaments. This interaction is facilitated by a cytoplasmic adhesion module comprising of a complex of {beta}-catenin/-catenin. Recent evidence shows that under specific conditions the {beta}-catenin/-catenin complex gets disrupted because of mechanical…",
