PHD3 inhibits colon cancer cell metastasis through the occludin-p38 pathway

open access: yesActa Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica, 2023
Prolyl hydroxylase 3 (PHD3) hydroxylates HIFα in the presence of oxygen, leading to HIFα degradation. PHD3 inhibits tumorigenesis. However, the underlying mechanism is not well understood. Herein, we demonstrate that PHD3 inhibits the metastasis of colon

Occludin 1B, a Variant of the Tight Junction Protein Occludin [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology of the Cell, 2000
Occludin and claudin are the major integral membrane components of the mammalian tight junction. Although more than 11 distinct claudins have been identified, only 1 occludin transcript has been reported thus far. Therefore, we searched by reverse transcription–PCR for occludin-related sequences in Madin–Darby canine kidney (MDCK) mRNA and identified a

Occludin Modulates Transepithelial Migration of Neutrophils [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2000
Neutrophils cross epithelial sheets to reach inflamed mucosal surfaces by migrating along the paracellular route. To avoid breakdown of the epithelial barrier, this process requires coordinated opening and closing of tight junctions, the most apical intercellular junctions in epithelia. To determine the function of epithelial tight junction proteins in

Occludin immunolocalization and protein expression in goldfish [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 2008
SUMMARYTight junctions (TJs) are an integral component of models illustrating ion transport mechanisms across fish epithelia; however, little is known about TJ proteins in fishes. Using immunohistochemical methods and Western blot analysis, we examined the localization and expression of occludin, a transmembrane TJ protein, in goldfish tissues.

Structure, Function, and Regulation of the Blood-Brain Barrier Tight Junction in Central Nervous System Disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) allows the brain to selectively import nutrients and energy critical to neuronal function while simultaneously excluding neurotoxic substances from the peripheral circulation.

Aspalathus linearis (Rooibos) and Agmatine May Act Synergistically to Beneficially Modulate Intestinal Tight Junction Integrity and Inflammatory Profile

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2022
In order to promote gastrointestinal health, significant increases in the prevalence of gastrointestinal disorders should be paralleled by similar surges in therapeutics research.

Modulatory Effects of Bacillus subtilis on the Performance, Morphology, Cecal Microbiota and Gut Barrier Function of Laying Hens

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
We investigated the efficacy of a single bacterium strain, Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis) YW1, on the performance, morphology, cecal microbiota, and intestinal barrier function of laying hens.

Loss of Occludin Affects Tricellular Localization of Tricellulin [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology of the Cell, 2008
The tricellular tight junction (tTJ) forms at the convergence of bicellular tight junctions (bTJs) where three epithelial cells meet in polarized epithelia, and it is required for the maintenance of the transepithelial barrier. Tricellulin is a four transmembrane domain protein recently identified as the first marker of tTJ, but little is known about ...

Occludin Localizes to Centrosomes and Modifies Mitotic Entry [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2011
Proper control of cell cycle progression and barrier function are essential processes to the maintenance of epithelial cell homeostasis. The contribution of tight junction proteins to barrier function is well established, whereas their contribution to cell cycle control is only beginning to be understood.

Therapeutic Efficacy of Novel HDAC Inhibitors SPA3052 and SPA3074 against Intestinal Inflammation in a Murine Model of Colitis

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2022
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are digestive tract disorders that involve chronic inflammation with frequent recurrences. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of two novel histone deacetylase 8 (HDAC8) inhibitors, namely, SPA3052 and SPA3074 ...
