Regulation of claudin/zonula occludens-1 complexes by hetero-claudin interactions. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2016 Alcohol abuse is a risk factor for acute respiratory distress syndrome, flooding of the lungs due to compromised barrier function. Here the authors report that alcohol upregulates claudin-5 that is then recruited to tight junctions in alveolar epithelial

Protects Porcine Intestinal Barrier from Deoxynivalenol via Improved Zonula Occludens-1 Expression [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2014 Intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) forming the barrier for the first-line of protection are interconnected by tight junction (TJ) proteins. TJ alteration results in impaired barrier function, which causes potentially excessive inflammation leading to ...

High resolution immunoinformatic profiling of Zonula occludens toxin reveals a conserved multiepitope vaccine candidate in <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i>. [PDF]
Front ImmunolAcinetobacter baumannii is a multidrug-resistant (MDR) nosocomial pathogen associated with exceptionally high mortality, underscoring the urgent need for immune-based strategies that operate independently of antibiotic susceptibility.

Increased systemic zonula occludens 1 associated with inflammation and independent biomarker in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. [PDF]
BMC Cancer, 2018 Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a frequent type of primary liver cancer, and its prevalence is increasing worldwide. Indeed, the underlying molecular mechanism is not well understood. Previous studies have shown evidence that tight junction (

Structural Basis of a Key Factor Regulating the Affinity between the Zonula Occludens First PDZ Domain and Claudins. [PDF]
J Biol Chem, 2015 The molecular seal between epithelial cells, called the tight junction (TJ), is built by several membrane proteins, with claudins playing the most prominent role.
