Neuronal connexin36 association with zonula occludens‐1 protein (ZO‐1) in mouse brain and interaction with the first PDZ domain of ZO‐1 [PDF]

European Journal of Neuroscience, 2004
AbstractAmong the 20 members in the connexin family of gap junction proteins, only connexin36 (Cx36) is firmly established to be expressed in neurons and to form electrical synapses at widely distributed interneuronal gap junctions in mammalian brain.

Regulation of tight junction assembly and epithelial morphogenesis by the heat shock protein Apg-2

, 2007
Background: Tight junctions are required for epithelial barrier formation and participate in the regulation of signalling mechanisms that control proliferation and differentiation.

Dual Roles of Tight Junction-associated Protein, Zonula Occludens-1, in Sphingosine 1-Phosphate-mediated Endothelial Chemotaxis and Barrier Integrity [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2006
In this report, sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), a serum-borne bioactive lipid, is shown to activate tight-junction-associated protein Zonula Occludens-1 (ZO-1), which in turn plays a critical role in regulating endothelial chemotaxis and barrier integrity.

Electrical synaptic transmission requires a postsynaptic scaffolding protein

eLife, 2021
Electrical synaptic transmission relies on neuronal gap junctions containing channels constructed by Connexins. While at chemical synapses neurotransmitter-gated ion channels are critically supported by scaffolding proteins, it is unknown if channels at ...

Supplementation of postbiotic RI11 improves antioxidant enzyme activity, upregulated gut barrier genes, and reduced cytokine, acute phase protein, and heat shock protein 70 gene expression levels in heat-stressed broilers

Poultry Science, 2021
The aim of this work was to evaluate the impacts of feeding different levels of postbiotic RI11 on antioxidant enzyme activity, physiological stress indicators, and cytokine and gut barrier gene expression in broilers under heat stress.

Structural Changes in the Carboxyl Terminus of the Gap Junction Protein Connexin43 Indicates Signaling between Binding Domains for c-Src and Zonula Occludens-1 [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2004
Regulation of cell-cell communication by the gap junction protein connexin43 can be modulated by a variety of connexin-associating proteins. In particular, c-Src can disrupt the connexin43 (Cx43)-zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) interaction, leading to down-regulation of gap junction intercellular communication. The binding sites for ZO-1 and c-Src correspond
