Tight junction proteins ZO-1, occludin, and claudins in developing and adult human perineurium.
In peripheral nerves, groups of Schwann cell-axon units are isolated from the adjacent tissues by the perineurium, which creates a diffusion barrier responsible for the maintenance of endoneurial homeostasis. The perineurium is formed by concentric layers of overlapping, polygonal perineurial cells that form tight junctions at their interdigitating cell borders. In this study, employing indirec...
متن کاملDistribution of the tight junction proteins ZO-1, occludin, and claudin-4, -8, and -12 in bladder epithelium.
In mammals, the bladder stores urine without permitting the passage of urine contents into the bloodstream, a function, in part, of the uroepithelial-associated tight junction complex. The protein constituents that make up this high-resistance barrier in the bladder are currently unknown, although the claudins, a multigene family, are thought to govern paracellular transport in other epithelia....
متن کاملZO-1 and ZO-2 Independently Determine Where Claudins Are Polymerized in Tight-Junction Strand Formation
A fundamental question in cell and developmental biology is how epithelial cells construct the diffusion barrier allowing them to separate different body compartments. Formation of tight junction (TJ) strands, which are crucial for this barrier, involves the polymerization of claudins, TJ adhesion molecules, in temporal and spatial manners. ZO-1 and ZO-2 are major PDZ-domain-containing TJ prote...
متن کاملβ-Conglycinin Reduces the Tight Junction Occludin and ZO-1 Expression in IPEC-J2
Soybean allergy presents a health threat to humans and animals. The mechanism by which food/feed allergen β-conglycinin injures the intestinal barrier has not been well understood. In this study, the changes of epithelial permeability, integrity, metabolic activity, the tight junction (TJ) distribution and expression induced by β-conglycinin were evaluated using IPEC-J2 model. The results showe...
متن کاملMonoclonal antibody 7H6 reacts with a novel tight junction-associated protein distinct from ZO-1, cingulin and ZO-2
The tight junction is an essential element of the intercellular junctional complex; yet its protein composition is not fully understood. At present, only three proteins, ZO-1 (Stevenson, B. R., J. D. Siliciano, M. S. Mooseker, and D. A. Goodenough. 1986. J. Cell Biol. 103:755-766), cingulin (Citi, S., H. Sabanay, R. Jakes, B. Geiger, and J. Kendrick-Jones. 1988. Nature (Lond.). 333:272-275) and...
