ZOning out Tight Junctions [PDF]
Cell, 2006 The tight junction is an intricate seal between adjoining epithelial cells that also separates the apical and basolateral membranes within these cells. A paper in this issue of Cell by Umeda et al. (2006) demonstrates that loss of the ZO scaffolding proteins prevents the formation of tight junctions but surprisingly does not perturb apico-basal ...

Adenomyosis: three‐dimensional sonographic findings of the junctional zone and correlation with histology [PDF]
Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2011 To correlate with histopathological features the adenomyosis-induced morphological alterations of the outer myometrium and the inner myometrium ('junctional zone', JZ) detectable on two- (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) transvaginal ultrasound imaging ...

Measurement of junctional tension in epithelial cells at the onset of primitive streak formation in the chick embryo via non-destructive optical manipulation [PDF]
, 2020 Directional cell intercalations of epithelial cells during gastrulation has in several organisms been shown to be associated with a planar cell polarity in the organisation of the actin-myosin cytoskeleton and is postulated to reflect directional tension

Transmyometrial embryo transfer and junctional zone contractions [PDF]
Human Reproduction, 2002 Embryo transfer is a crucial step in IVF-embryo transfer cycles. Several studies have explored transmyometrial embryo transfer, but although this procedure has several favourable characteristics, its role in assisted reproduction has not yet been established.

Considering the esophagogastric junction as a ‘zone’ [PDF]
Digestive Endoscopy, 2017 Siewert's classification of adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ) classifies tumors anatomically for determining the appropriate surgical technique. According to this classification, a type II tumor, true carcinoma of the cardia, is defined as a cancer within 1 cm proximal to 2 cm distal of the EGJ.

Embryo transfer and uterine junctional zone contractions. VIDEO [PDF]
Human Reproduction Update, 1999 Embryo transfer is one of the most critical steps affecting the success rate of in-vitro fertilization (IVF) and has changed little since IVF was first described (Steptoe and Edwards 1978). While there is general agreement that a smooth embryo transfer is associated more frequently with successful outcome (Wood et al., 1985; Mansour et al., l990 ...

The uterine junctional zone: a 3-dimensional ultrasound study of patients with endometriosis. [PDF]
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2013 The uterine junctional zone (JZ) alterations are correlated with adenomyosis. An accurate evaluation of the JZ may be obtained by 3-dimensional transvaginal sonography (TVS).

Fertility & Reproduction, 2020 Background: Uterine peristalsis occurs in the endometrial–myometrial junctional zone. It is involved in sperm transport and embryo implantation in spontaneous and in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles.
