MiR-144 Increases Intestinal Permeability in IBS-D Rats by Targeting OCLN and ZO1 [PDF]

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2017
Background/Aims: Irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhoea (IBS-D) is a chronic, functional bowel disorder characterized by abdominal pain or diarrhoea and altered bowel habits, which correlate with intestinal hyperpermeability.

SARS-CoV-2 Envelope (E) protein interacts with PDZ-domain-2 of host tight junction protein ZO1. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Newly emerged SARS-CoV-2 is the cause of an ongoing global pandemic leading to severe respiratory disease in humans. SARS-CoV-2 targets epithelial cells in the respiratory tract and lungs, which can lead to amplified chloride secretion and increased leak

Supplementary Figure S1. hsa-miR-143-3p and hsa-miR-145-5p reduces ZO1 expression, increases α-SMA expression, and induces cytoskeletal rearrangement in cultured human podocytes.

open access: yes, 2023
Cultured human podocytes were infected with lentiviral particle encoding pre-hsa-miR-143-3p, pre-hsa-miR-145-5p, or scrambled control allele (Sc) and subjected to following analysis. (A) After incubation with or without 5 ng/mL TGF-β1 for 24 hours, ZO1 mRNA expression levels were examined by RT-qPCR.

Supplementary Figure S3. mTOR signaling partially mediates induction of cytoskeletal rearrangement, upregulation of α-SMA expression, and downregulation of ZO1 expression induced by TGF-β1, but do not affect LCB1/2 expression in cultured human podocytes.

open access: yes, 2023
Podocytes were cultured with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as vehicle control alone, 20 nM rapamycin (Rapa) alone, DMSO plus 5 ng/mL TGF-β1, or 20 nM Rapa plus 5 ng/mL TGF-β1 for 24 hours. (A) In podocytes exposed to DMSO plus TGF-β1, F-actin stress fiber formation was enhanced, ZO1 expression at intercellular junctions was decreased, and α-SMA expression ...

Decreased ZO1 expression causes loss of time-dependent tight junction function in the liver of ob/ob mice [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology Reports, 2021
Abstract Diabetes patients are at a high risk of developing complications related to angiopathy and disruption of the signal transduction system. The liver is one of the multiple organs damaged during diabetes. Few studies have evaluated the morphological effects of adhesion factors in diabetic liver. The influence of diurnal variation has been

GLTSCR1 coordinates alternative splicing and transcription elongation of ZO1 to regulate colorectal cancer progression

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Cell Biology, 2021
Abstract Alternative splicing (AS) and transcription elongation are vital biological processes, and their dysregulation causes multiple diseases, including tumors. However, the coregulatory mechanism of AS and transcription elongation in tumors remains unclear.

Nano-scale architecture of blood-brain barrier tight-junctions

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Tight junctions (TJs) between blood-brain barrier (BBB) endothelial cells construct a robust physical barrier, whose damage underlies BBB dysfunctions related to several neurodegenerative diseases.
