Apoptotic Fragmentation of Tricellulin [PDF]
Apoptotic extrusion of cells from epithelial cell layers is of central importance for epithelial homeostasis. As a prerequisite cell–cell contacts between apoptotic cells and their neighbors have to be dissociated. Tricellular tight junctions (tTJs)

Loss of tricellular tight junction tricellulin leads to hyposalivation in Sjögren’s syndrome [PDF]
Tricellulin, a key tricellular tight junction (TJ) protein, is essential for maintaining the barrier integrity of acinar epithelia against macromolecular passage in salivary glands.

Loss of Occludin Affects Tricellular Localization of Tricellulin [PDF]
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 ...

Tricellulin Effect on Paracellular Water Transport [PDF]
In epithelia, large amounts of water pass by transcellular and paracellular pathways, driven by the osmotic gradient built up by the movement of solutes. The transcellular pathway has been molecularly characterized by the discovery of aquaporin membrane channels. Unlike this, the existence of a paracellular pathway for water through the tight junctions

The Role of Tricellulin in Epithelial Jamming and Unjamming via Segmentation of Tricellular Junctions [PDF]
Collective cellular behavior in confluent monolayers supports physiological and pathological processes of epithelial development, regeneration, and carcinogenesis. Here, the attainment of a mature and static tissue configuration or the local reactivation

Contribution of the tricellular tight junction proteins, tricellulin and angulin-1, to paracellular water permeability [PDF]
In epithelia, large amounts of water pass by transcellular and paracellular pathways, driven by the osmotic gradient built up by solutes’ movement.

Diesel exhaust particle exposure reduces expression of the epithelial tight junction protein Tricellulin [PDF]
Background While exposure to diesel exhaust particles has been linked to aberrant immune responses in allergic diseases such as asthma, little attention has been paid to their effects on the airway epithelial barrier.

Deafness in occludin-deficient mice with dislocation of tricellulin and progressive apoptosis of the hair cells [PDF]
Occludin is the first identified protein in the tight junction (TJ), but its function has remained for the most part obscure. TJs have been demonstrated to play important roles in the inner ear function, and occludin is expressed in all the epithelial ...

Tricellulin Expression and its Prognostic Significance in Primary Liver Carcinomas
Numerous data suggest that altered expression of tight junction proteins such as occludin and claudins plays important role in carcinogenesis. However, little is known about tricellulin, a transmembrane tight junction protein concentrated where three epithelial cells meet. We aimed to characterize tricellulin expression in normal and cirrhotic liver in
