Use of Modified Clostridium perfringens Enterotoxin Fragments for Claudin Targeting in Liver and Skin Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Claudins regulate paracellular permeability in different tissues. The claudin-binding domain of Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin (cCPE) is a known modulator of a claudin subset. However, it does not efficiently bind to claudin-1 (Cldn1).

Quercetin effectively improves LPS-induced intestinal inflammation, pyroptosis, and disruption of the barrier function through the TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway in vivo and in vitro

open access: yesFood & Nutrition Research, 2022
Background: Inflammatory bowel diseases are characterized by the alterations of the mucosa and gastrointestinal physiology, and the core of these alterations is endothelial cells.

Protein Kinase C Activation Has Distinct Effects on the Localization, Phosphorylation and Detergent Solubility of the Claudin Protein Family in Tight and Leaky Epithelial Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We have previously shown that protein kinase C (PKC) activation has distinct effects on the structure and barrier properties of cultured epithelial cells (HT29 and MDCK I). Since the claudin family of tight junction (TJ)-associated proteins is considered

Celiac Disease Monocytes Induce a Barrier Defect in Intestinal Epithelial Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Intestinal epithelial barrier function in celiac disease (CeD) patients is altered. However, the mechanism underlying this effect is not fully understood.

Cytokine tuning of intestinal epithelial function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The intestine serves as both our largest single barrier to the external environment and the host of more immune cells than any other location in our bodies.

Claudins and mineral metabolism [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 2016
The tight junction conductance made of the claudin-based paracellular channel is important in the regulation of calcium and magnesium reabsorption in the kidney. This review describes recent findings of the structure, the function, and the physiologic regulation of claudin-14, claudin-16, and claudin-19 channels that through protein interactions confer

Occludin is required for apoptosis when claudin–claudin interactions are disrupted [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death & Disease, 2012
Disruption of tight junctions is often seen during pathogen infection, inflammation, and tumor progression. Mislocalization of the tight junction proteins occludin and claudin in mammary epithelial monolayers leads to apoptosis through the extrinsic pathway.

Malignant progression of liver cancer progenitors requires lysine acetyltransferase 7–acetylated and cytoplasm‐translocated G protein GαS

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
KAT7‐acetylated and cytoplasm‐translocated G‐protein GαS enhances IL‐6 effect and drives HCC progenitor cell progression. Abstract Background and Aims Hepatocarcinogenesis goes through HCC progenitor cells (HcPCs) to fully established HCC, and the mechanisms driving the development of HcPCs are still largely unknown.

Antibody-mediated targeting of Claudins in cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology
Tight junctions (TJs) are large intercellular adhesion complexes that maintain cell polarity in normal epithelia and endothelia. Claudins are critical components of TJs, forming homo- and heteromeric interaction between adjacent cells, which have emerged

Artificial rearing influences the morphology, permeability and redox state of the gastrointestinal tract of low and normal birth weight piglets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: In this study the physiological implications of artificial rearing were investigated. Low (LBW) and normal birth weight (NBW) piglets were compared as they might react differently to stressors caused by artificial rearing.
