Identification of MarvelD3 as a tight junction-associated transmembrane protein of the occludin family [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Tight junctions are an intercellular adhesion complex of epithelial and endothelial cells, and form a paracellular barrier that restricts the diffusion of solutes on the basis of size and charge.

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.

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.

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.

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

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 ...

Adaptation of hepatitis C virus to mouse CD81 permits infection of mouse cells in the absence of human entry factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) naturally infects only humans and chimpanzees. The determinants responsible for this narrow species tropism are not well defined.

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.

Evaluation of LncRNA uc.173 and Occludin in Iranian Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease Compared with Healthy Individuals [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Biomedical Sciences, 2022
Background & Objective: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by the chronic gastrointestinal inflammation. The two common forms of IBD are ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD) that are distinguished by their location and depth of
