Barriers built on claudins [PDF]
Journal of Cell Science, 2004 The fundamental functions of epithelia and endothelia in multicellular organisms are to separate compositionally distinct compartments and regulate the exchange of small solutes and other substances between them. Tight junctions (TJs) between adjacent cells constitute the barrier to the passage of ions and molecules through the paracellular pathway and

The Expression and Localization of ZO-1, Claudin 1, and Claudin 4 in the Pig Epididymis
Journal of Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology, 2019 Tight junctions are constituents of the blood–epididymis barrier that play roles in regulating the unidirectional transcellular transport of ions, water, and solutes to maintain optimal conditions for sperm maturation and storage. Claudin 1 (Cldn1) and 4

Electrical conductance of a 2D packing of metallic beads under thermal perturbation [PDF]
, 2000 Electrical conductivity measurements on a 2D packing of metallic beads have been performed to study internal rearrangements in weakly pertubed granular materials. Small thermal perturbations lead to large non gaussian conductance fluctuations.

Curcumin Mitigates Immune-Induced Epithelial Barrier Dysfunction by Campylobacter jejuni [PDF]
, 2019 Campylobacter jejuni (C. jejuni) is the most common cause of foodborne gastroenteritis worldwide. The bacteria induce diarrhea and inflammation by invading the intestinal epithelium. Curcumin is a natural polyphenol from turmeric rhizome of Curcuma longa,
