Classical cadherin adhesion molecules are key determinants of cell recognition and tissue morphogenesis, with diverse effects on cell behavior. Recent developments indicate that classical cadherins are adhesion-activated signaling receptors. In particular, early–immediate Rac signaling is emerging as a mechanism to coordinate cadherin–actin integration at the plasma membrane.

Classical cadherin adhesion molecules exert profound and varied effects on cell behavior and tissue organization. It is commonly believed that cadherins support stable cell–cell contacts to maintain tissue cohesion, both during development and in post-embryonic life. But cadherins also participate in dynamic morphogenetic events: changes in cadherin repertoire influence cell sorting and tissue segregation , whereas dynamic regulation of cadherin activity participates in synaptogenesis  and in cell-on-cell locomotion during gastrulation . Conversely, in epithelial cancers, loss of E-cadherin activity is a major determinant of tumor progression and invasion .
. ~8 [* z" X5 e$ ^
Given these diverse outcomes, a key issue for some time has been whether classical cadherins exert their biological effects solely through their undeniable contributions to cell surface adhesion, or whether cadherins also act as cell-signaling receptors. Classical cadherins are single-pass transmembrane glycoproteins that function as membrane-spanning macromolecular complexes . The cadherin ectodomains mediate homophilic ligation and adhesive recognition, whereas the highly conserved cytoplasmic tails interact with proteins capable of linking cadherin adhesion to the actin cytoskeleton and cell-signaling pathways. In its simplest form, one might imagine that adhesive engagement of cadherin ectodomains would stimulate intracellular signaling. This classic paradigm of positive receptor–activated signaling characterizes many hormones, growth factors, and integrins. Such direct cadherin-activated signaling could provide an attractive mechanism for cell behavior to be altered in response to productive homophilic ligation., w$ y' B: d* |

Although often surmised, direct cadherin-activated signaling has been difficult to rigorously identify, although not for want of candidates. Indeed, many signaling molecules are reported to interact with classical cadherins, albeit under conditions that likely depend on cell type and context. The catalogue includes tyrosine kinases and phosphatases , lipid kinases , heterotrimeric GTPases , adaptor proteins , as well as ß-catenin itself. Formally, these interactions might serve to regulate cadherin activity, reflect assembly of signaling complexes, or indeed represent mechanisms for cadherin-activated signaling. Although it is clear that cadherin binding acts as a tonic inhibitor, not a direct activator, of ß-catenin signaling , the function of the other interactions has been less forthcoming. Recently, however, new approaches to dissecting the specific cellular consequences of cadherin ligation have established that classical cadherins function as ligand-activated signaling receptors  In particular, Rho family GTPases have emerged as part of a membrane-local signaling process capable of regulating cell shape and actin organization in response to cadherin adhesion. Without denying the likely existence of other modes of cadherin-dependent signaling, in this review we will concentrate on these new findings, and the light they may shed on how classical cadherins mediate cell–cell recognition.'

Interest in the functional relationship between cadherin adhesion and Rho family GTPases was first prompted by the observation that several members of this family, including RhoA, Rac1, and Cdc42, localized to cadherin-based cell–cell contacts (for review see ). Indeed, cadherin accumulation in contacts, and the morphological integrity of those contacts, is often altered in cells when GTPase activity is manipulated by any of several approaches . No simple functional pattern has emerged, at least in part because the consequences of GTPase signaling depend profoundly on cellular context . Nonetheless, the most consistent results were obtained upon manipulation of either Rac or Rho signaling . Stable localization of cadherins at cell–cell contacts often appeared to require Rho activity, whereas perturbation of Rac signaling had more pleotropic effects. In contrast, manipulation of Cdc42 seldom produced gross disturbances in cadherin localization or junctional assembly.
# ]4 |9 n9 S) e+ D
These studies did not, however, establish whether the Rho family GTPases might serve to relay signals emanating from outside adhesive contacts, or if these signals were being activated by cadherin ligation itself (not mutually exclusive possibilities). Cadherin function is commonly studied by comparing the behavior of cultured cells as they grow to confluence, or where cell–cell contacts are abruptly broken and allowed to reform through manipulation of extracellular calcium. Combining these approaches with affinity precipitation for the active GTP-loaded GTPase, it was recently reported that changes in GTPase activity accompanied the formation of cadherin-dependent cell–cell contacts. Steady-state Rac activity was increased when monolayers of VE-cadherin–null cells were complemented with VE-cadherin . Rac activity also rose rapidly (over a time course of minutes) as cells formed contacts with one another . The effect of cell contact on other GTPases was less consistent. reported that Rho activity was inhibited in E-cadherin–expressing MDCK cells, no change was seen in another study (, and Rho was stimulated in N-cadherin–containing myogenic C2C12 cells . Similarly, stimulation of Cdc42 was found in some  but not all  studies〞discrepancies that are likely due to differences in cell type and assay conditions.2 }4 J  h8 l  q- n1 k; c

Clearly then, changes in Rho family GTPase activity can accompany the cadherin-dependent formation of cell–cell contacts. However, in studying native cell–cell interactions it is difficult, if not impossible, to discriminate cell signals that arise as direct consequences of cadherin ligation (direct cadherin signaling), from those due to juxtacrine signaling (i.e., surface-dependent signals that require cadherin adhesion to appose cells, but which are not themselves directly activated by the cadherin). For example, although inhibition of cadherin activity (e.g., using blocking antibodies) identifies some specific requirement for cadherin adhesion, this alone cannot distinguish secondary from primary signaling events. This distinction is fundamental for any rigorous mechanistic analysis of cadherin signaling.

An important advance was the recent development of recombinant cadherin-specific adhesive ligands. Several such proteins have now been described that utilize the complete ectodomains of C-cadherin , N-cadherin , or E-cadherin (. When presented on planar substrata or coated on beads, these ligands support cadherin-specific adhesion  and lateral clustering  recruiting catenins  as well as regulating the actin cytoskeleton . These reagents therefore present a powerful opportunity to isolate cellular consequences of homophilic adhesive binding, independent of secondary effects that occur when native cell surfaces come into contact with one another.

Using this reductionist strategy, rapid stimulation of GTP.Rac levels was observed as cadherin-containing cells adhered to substrata coated with ligands for either Xenopus C-cadherin  or human E-cadherin . Importantly, Rac activation was not seen when cells adhered to poly-L-lysine , indicating that the rapid change in Rac signaling was a specific consequence of cadherin ligation, and not due to changes in cell shape concomitant upon spreading on planar substrata. Notably, Rac signaling increased within minutes of cadherin ligation , a time course comparable to those associated with direct pathways activated by growth factors and integrins. In contrast, Rho or Cdc42 activity did not change as acute responses to cadherin ligation . This suggests that Rac may be principally activated as an early–immediate response to cadherin adhesion. Consistent with this, within individual cells Rac appeared to preferentially recruit to cadherins engaged in forming new adhesive contacts, but to dissipate as contacts aged. This implies that Rac is not activated continuously by all cadherins engaged in adhesion, but principally by those in the process of forming new contacts.$ g. U1 ^' ~) e

Over longer time frames (hours), however, homophilic ligation appears to have more diverse effects on GTPase signaling. Homophilic binding of C-cadherin inhibited Rho GTPase activity , whereas adhesion of mouse C2C12 cells to chick N-cadherin activated Rho signaling, with concomitant decreases in GTP.Rac and GTP.Cdc42 levels . Sustained engagement of cadherins is therefore likely to have complex consequences for GTPase signaling that are influenced by cell type, cross-talk between Rho and Rac signals , cellular context, and perhaps even cadherin type.5 {$ t9 N* L9 k$ t  C* ^$ R3 L" I4 S

Despite these complexities, these data established that classical cadherins function as ligand-activated receptors that modulate Rac and Rho GTPase activity upon adhesive ligation. In our view, the current data most clearly implicate Rac activation as a direct early–immediate response to cadherin ligation, and the remainder of this review will focus on cadherin-activated Rac signaling. In contrast, Cdc42 was stimulated when native cell contacts assembled , but not in cells bound to purified C-cadherin ligands . The jury remains out, but it is plausible that the changes in Cdc42 signaling seen when native cell contacts form are due to secondary signaling events associated with cell–cell contact. Certainly, this discrepancy highlights the notion that not all cadherin-dependent signaling events that arise as cells come into contact with one another are necessarily direct consequences of the cadherin receptor itself.1 \$ z  l7 @9 y% a9 a% P& i

How then might early–immediate activation of Rac contribute to cadherin function? Although essential for the cohesion of mature tissues, classical cadherins also participate in the early adhesive events involved in cell–cell recognition during development, cell migration, and wound-healing. The morphological details vary between experimental models , but in all cases productive cell–cell recognition entails the conversion of limited, nascent cadherin contacts into broader zones of adhesion. Rac appears to be critical for this process of contact-zone extension. When studied in native cell–cell contacts  as well as when cells adhere to cadherin-coated substrata, Rac is recruited to newly forming contacts and, indeed, principally localizes at the margins where contacts are being actively extended. Moreover, contact zone extension itself was significantly retarded by inhibiting Rac , and potentiated when Rac was stimulated  By implication, it is attractive to postulate that the early activation of Rac by cadherin ligation couples homophilic recognition to contact zone extension.
$ m- L# m  P' X/ k7 O( P7 i2 _! k
One likely link between Rac signaling and contact zone extension is through regulation of the actin cytoskeleton. It has long been recognized that classical cadherins function in cooperation with actin filaments . Originally, cortical actin was envisioned to stabilize adhesion by scaffolding cadherin–catenin complexes. Recent cellular and genetic studies now make it clear that cadherins also interact with more dynamic states of the actin cytoskeleton . Of relevance for understanding the early events in cell–cell recognition, surface-directed actin assembly is a protrusive mechanism that not only brings cells into contact with one another (, but also participates in productively extending those nascent cadherin contacts. Thus, reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton occurs as contacts extend  and E-cadherin can interact biochemically with the Arp 2/3 actin nucleator complex , a key determinant of actin assembly. Notably, homophilic ligation of E-cadherin alone could recruit Arp2/3 to nascent adhesive contacts, indicating that cadherin adhesion was sufficient to mark sites for actin assembly to occur at the cell surface" p2 A- r0 m7 e' p2 a/ K

Importantly, actin assembly by the Arp2/3 complex is quite strictly activated by cell signals, including Cdc 42 and Rac . One function of cadherin-activated Rac signaling may therefore be to stimulate catalytic activity of the Arp2/3 complex when it is recruited to the cell surface by cadherin ligation. Consistent with this notion, both Rac and Arp2/3 localized in newly forming cadherin contacts , whereas inhibition of Rac signaling blocked actin assembly at sites of adhesion between cells and N-cadherin–coated beads . As a working model, we therefore propose that the membrane-local activation of Rac plays a key role in early adhesive cell recognition by recruiting and/or activating the actin assembly apparatus in response to E-cadherin ligation , thereby directing Arp2/3-based surface protrusiveness to efficiently expand zones of cell contact. Later effects of cadherin signaling may further remodel the actin cytoskeleton, for example through regulation of myosin-based contractility by Rho4 K- W  d( ^8 `3 `

A model for cadherin-activated Rac signaling participation in early cell–cell recognition. (A) Productive cadherin ligation in newly forming contacts (1) activates Rac signaling at the plasma membrane via a PI3 kinase–dependent intermediary step (2) and possibly also a pathway independent of PI3 kinase (3). One key consequence of Rac activation is the stimulation of cadherin-directed actin assembly by Arp2/3 (4), thereby leading to protrusion of the cell surface (5). (B) Cadherin-directed actin assembly, coordinated by Rac activation, is predicted to direct the surface-protrusive activity of the actin cytoskeleton toward such nascent contacts, to extend the regions of contact and ultimately stabilize cell–cell adhesion.

Local GTPase activation may also influence cadherin function by affecting the activity and/or composition of the cadherin–catenin complex. Notably, IQGAP, a multidomain protein that can act as a downstream effector of both Cdc42 and Rac, is found at cadherin-based cell–cell contacts and has the potential to regulate cadherin adhesiveness . Overexpression of IQGAP reduced cadherin-based cell adhesiveness, perhaps by displacing -catenin from the cadherin–catenin complex. However, the physiological significance of these observations remains to be determined. IQGAP is commonly viewed to simply antagonize cadherin adhesion , but it is worth remembering that regulated decreases in adhesion are also important for the biological contribution of cadherins during morphogenesis . Nor is it yet clear whether IQGAP might act in response to cadherin-activated signaling, or mediate the effects of other signaling pathways on cadherin function. Nonetheless, this highlights the potential for membrane-local cadherin-activated signals to mediate cooperation between surface adhesion and actin cytoskeletal activity.$ I0 v* @) s9 R2 B2 p. F

How classical cadherins activate Rho family GTPases: control of GTPase competance and membrane localization5 w$ x5 Z5 s/ R

Rho family GTPases, like other GTP-binding proteins, function as molecular switches. Their participation in cell signaling depends on both their intrinsic capacity to interact with downstream effector molecules and their correct subcellular localization . Emerging evidence suggests that classical cadherins can, directly or indirectly, contribute to both these processes.5 y6 Y& \+ R& k: w4 A

Like other GTPases, nucleotide status determines whether Rho family proteins can interact with, and activate, downstream effector molecules . To date, guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) appear to be principally responsible for promoting exchange of GDP for GTP, thereby rendering Rho family GTPases competant to signal . Several potential candidate GEFs exist that might mediate the early activation of Rac by classical cadherins. VAV2, which activates Rho, Rac, and Cdc42 , can interact with p120-ctn, which binds the cytoplasmic tail of classical cadherins . Alternatively, Tiam-1 is a Rac-specific GEF capable of affecting E-cadherin expression and the stability of epithelial adherens junctions . The precise role of these, or other GEFs, in cadherin-activated signaling is an urgent question for investigation.$ ^% v- c& D4 r

One important clue to the upstream components of the cadherin-activated Rac pathway comes from the lipid kinase, PI3 kinase. PI3 kinase is capable of activating Rac, probably by recruiting to the membrane GEF(s) containing PH domains that recognize PI-(3,4,5)-P3 (PIP3. Indeed, several Rac-specific GEFs, including Tiam-1, contain PH domains that recognize PIP3. Importantly, cadherin ligation can recruit Type 1A PI3 kinase to the cadherin complex and stimulate PI3 kinase activity  Moreover, inhibition of PI3 kinase activity prevented full stimulation of Rac by E-cadherin  Together, these data suggest a role for PI3 kinase as an upstream activator of Rac in cadherin-activated signaling. It should be noted that although PI3 kinase inhibition very potently blocked cadherin contact formation and adhesion, it did not fully abolish Rac activation by E-cadherin . Therefore, PI3 kinase is unlikely to be the sole mechanism for E-cadherin to activate Rac.3 y7 H3 ?6 B7 g* p

Finally, classical cadherins may influence the precise sites at the plasma membrane where Rho family signaling occurs. As noted above, interest in Rho family signaling was first occasioned by evidence that these molecules localized to adherens junctions. At least for Rac, it is clear that this molecule is not found at all cadherin contacts: instead it appears to principally recruit to newly forming contacts. This may be an indirect consequence of cadherin signaling, especially local generation of PIP3 by PI3 kinase (. In addition, it is also possible that proteins of the cadherin–catenin complex can associate directly with Rho family proteins. Of note, demonstrated recently that purified -catenin and p120-ctn could both bind to Rho, supporti. Moreover, p120-ctn was necessary for Rho to accumulate in Drosophila adherens junctions. Multiple mechanisms may therefore exist to ensure the spatial fidelity of cadherin signaling.

To conclude, we believe that recent developments firmly establish the principle that classical cadherins function both as mediators of cell surface adhesion, and as adhesion-activated cell surface receptors. These functions are likely to be intimately interrelated. We have focused on positive signaling pathways responsible for cadherin–actin cooperation at the plasma membrane, processes relevant to contact formation, cell-upon-cell locomotion, and cellular recognition. However, there are already signs that cadherin signaling is even more complex. Both Rac and PI3 kinase signaling ramify beyond the plasma membrane to control processes such as cell proliferation and apoptosis. Interestingly, cadherin activated PI3 kinase signaling induced the recruitment to, and phosphorylation of, Akt (PKB) , an enzyme well implicated in controlling apoptosis. Moreover, it is possible that the numerous protein–protein interactions reported between classical cadherins and other signaling molecules reflect alternate modes of cadherin signaling. For example, VE-cadherin can condition VEGF signaling in endothelial cells  and it has been suggested that E-cadherin may cocluster and activate EGF receptor signaling in a manner independent of EGF itself . Heterotypic cis-interactions between cadherins and receptor tyrosine kinases may therefore constitute a separate paradigm of cadherin-activated signaling. All told, it is likely to be an exciting and challenging time for those of us interested in understanding what happens when two cells touch.
