Developmental expression of claudins in the mammary gland [PDF]
Claudins are a large family of membrane proteins whose classic function is to regulate the permeability of tight junctions in epithelia. They are tetraspanins, with four alpha-helices crossing the membrane, two extracellular loops, a short cytoplasmic N ...

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

Laminaria japonica Extract Enhances Intestinal Barrier Function by Altering Inflammatory Response and Tight Junction-Related Protein in Lipopolysaccharide-Stimulated Caco-2 Cells. [PDF]
In the normal physiological state, intestinal epithelial cells act as a defensive frontline of host mucosal immunity to tolerate constant exposure to external stimuli.

Claudin and occludin expression and function in the seminiferous epithelium [PDF]
Integral membrane proteins that contribute to function of the blood–testes barrier (BTB) in mice include claudins 3, 5 and 11 and occludin. Although claudin 11 is expressed throughout all stages of the seminiferous epithelial cycle, claudins 3 and 5 have specific expression at stage VIII.

Dysbiosis and zonulin upregulation alter gut epithelial and vascular barriers in patients with ankylosing spondylitis [PDF]
Background: Dysbiosis has been recently demonstrated in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) but its implications in the modulation of intestinal immune responses have never been studied.

Occludin phosphorylation: identification of an occludin kinase in brain and cell extracts as CK2
In epithelial and endothelial cells, tight junctions limit paracellular flux of ions, proteins and other macromolecules. However, mechanisms regulating tight junction function are not clear. Occludin, a tight junction protein, undergoes phosphorylation changes in several situations but little is known about occludin kinases.

Intestinal Barrier Function in Gluten-Related Disorders [PDF]
Gluten-related disorders include distinct disease entities, namely celiac disease, wheat-associated allergy and non-celiac gluten/wheat sensitivity. Despite having in common the contact of the gastrointestinal mucosa with components of wheat and other ...
