Intestinal Permeability Regulation by Tight Junction: Implication on Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (2015, background): “1).(11,12) Four integral transmembrane proteins, occludin,(13) claudins,(14) junctional adhesion molecule (JAM),(15) and tricelluin,(16) have been identified.”
Regulation of tight junctions during the epithelium-mesenchyme transition: direct repression of the gene expression of claudins/occludin by Snail (2003, background): “Claudins and occludin are thought to constitute the backbone of TJ strands and to modulate some functions of TJs, respectively (Tsukita et al., 2001).”
Regulation of retinal blood flow in health and disease. (2008, background): “The plaque itself is anchored to the actin cytoskeleton and to various signaling molecules that participate in the control of cell proliferation and differentiation (Tsukita et al., 2001; D’Atri and Citi, 2002; Schneeberger and Lynch, 2004; Aijaz et al., 2006; Bazzoni, 2006).”
Hes genes regulate size, shape and histogenesis of the nervous system by control of the timing of neural stem cell differentiation (2004, background): “Consistent with this observation, the tight junction molecules claudin-10, -15 and -18 (Tsukita et al., 2001), as well as the adherens junction molecule N-cadherin (Hatta and Takeichi, 1986), were expressed at the apical urface of neuroepithelial cells of both the wild type and the d uble mutant…”
Electrolyte transport in the mammalian colon: mechanisms and implications for disease. (2002, neutral): “main-mediated interactions of proteins (79, 612).”
Nectin and afadin: novel organizers of intercellular junctions (2003, background): “The association of these CAMs with the actin cytoskeleton has been proposed to strengthen the intercellular adhesion of TJs (Tsukita et al., 1999; Tsukita et al., 2001).”
The blood-brain barrier: an engineering perspective (2013, background): “These sites are often described as strands of “particles” along the junction (Figure 2) (Tsukita and Furuse, 1999; Tsukita et al., 2001); the backbone of these strands is composed of claudins.”
Cadherin switching (2008, background): “The junctional complex comprises tight junctions, adherens junctions and desmosomes (reviewed in Tsukita et al., 2001; Wheelock and Johnson, 2003b).”
Intestinal permeability – a new target for disease prevention and therapy (2014, background): “The paracellular space is sealed by tight junctions (TJ) which regulate the flow of water ions and small molecules through the composition of claudins and other proteins in the junctional complex [5,18,19].”
