The kidney tight junction [PDF]
, 2014 The tight junction is an important subcellular organelle which plays a vital role in epithelial barrier function. Claudin, as the integral membrane component of tight junctions, creates a paracellular transport pathway for various ions to be reabsorbed ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend The capillary–mitochondria–ion channel (CMIC) axis scales structural resources to match functional workload. (Left) In settings of restricted energetic capacity (e.g. cortical neurons), sparse capillary networks and modest mitochondrial pools set a lower energetic ceiling, sufficient to support phasic, low‐workload excitability. (

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Schematic overview of a flow‐driven in vitro model of the human placental barrier designed to study transport processes during pregnancy. The model recreates key features of the maternal–fetal interface, enabling the investigation of how nutrients and therapeutic compounds cross the placental barrier under physiologically ...

Cytokine tuning of intestinal epithelial function [PDF]
, 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.

Journal of Cell Biology, 1996 Tight junctions, the most apical of the intercellular junctions that connect individual cells in a epithelial sheet, are thought to form a seal that restricts paracellular and intramembrane diffusion.

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Renal sodium reabsorption occurs through both transcellular and paracellular pathways. Tight junction proteins play a key role in mediating paracellular transport. The collecting duct is critical for the fine tuning of sodium balance and is highly responsive to changes in dietary salt intake.

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 19, 2 April 2026.We developed a real‐time, label‐free, high‐throughput cell‐on‐a‐chip system based on a metasurface plasmon resonance colorimetric sensor (MetaSPRCS) to evaluate intestinal barrier function. This platform enables continuous monitoring of cell adhesion, proliferation, and barrier layer formation, disruption, and repair.

Immunological insights into gastric polyps: pathogenesis, inflammation and neoplastic potential
Clinical &Translational Immunology, Volume 15, Issue 4, 2026.Abstract Gastric polyps are a heterogeneous group of mucosal lesions increasingly detected during routine endoscopy, encompassing entities with distinct pathogenesis, immune landscapes and variable malignant potential. Accumulating evidence highlights the central role of gastric mucosal immunity in driving polyp initiation, progression, and, in select ...
