Inducible expression of Snail selectively increases paracellular ion permeability and differentially modulates tight junction proteins.
Constitutive expression of the transcription factor Snail was previously shown to trigger complete epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). The aim of this study was to determine whether inducible expression of Snail could modify epithelial properties without eliciting full mesenchymal conversion. For this purpose, we expressed mouse Snail (mSnail) cDNA in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells...
متن کاملTransmembrane proteins in the tight junction barrier.
Three types of transmembrane proteins have been identified within the tight junction, but it remains to be determined how they provide the molecular basis for regulating the paracellular permeability for water, solutes, and immune cells. Several of these proteins localize specifically within the continuous cell-to-cell contacts of the tight junction. One of these, occludin, is a cell adhesion m...
متن کاملMolecular decipherment of Rho effector pathways regulating tight-junction permeability.
We reported recently that the activation of RhoA induced an increase in transepithelial electrical resistance (TER). To clarify effectors of Rho for this RhoA-induced regulation of tight-junction permeability, we introduced two effector-loop mutants of constitutively active RhoA(V14), RhoA(V14/L40) and RhoA(V14/C42), into Mardin-Darby canine kidney cells in an isopropyl beta-D-thiogalactoside-i...
متن کاملLong noncoding RNA SPRY4-IT1 regulates intestinal epithelial barrier function by modulating the expression levels of tight junction proteins.
Epithelial cells line the intestinal mucosa and form an important barrier to a wide array of noxious substances in the lumen. Disruption of the barrier integrity occurs commonly in various pathologies. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) control diverse biological processes, but little is known about the role of lncRNAs in regulation of the gut permeability. Here we show that the lncRNA SPRY4-IT1 reg...
متن کاملVEGF increases BMEC monolayer permeability by affecting occludin expression and tight junction assembly.
Tight junctions between brain microvessel endothelial cells (BMECs) maintain the blood-brain barrier. Barrier breakdown is associated with brain tumors and central nervous system diseases. Tumor cell-secreted vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) increases microvasculature permeability in vivo and is correlated with the induction of clinically severe brain tumor edema. Here we investigated ...
