Tight junction protein gene expression patterns and changes in transcript abundance during development of model fish gill epithelia.
In vertebrates, tight junction (TJ) proteins play an important role in epithelium formation and development, the maintenance of tissue integrity and regulation of TJ permeability. In this study, primary cultured model gill epithelia composed of pavement cells (PVCs) were used to examine TJ protein transcript abundance during the development of epithelium confluence and epithelium resistive prop...
متن کاملPermeability properties of the teleost gill epithelium under ion-poor conditions.
Permeability properties of the goldfish gill epithelium were examined in vivo and in vitro following exposure to ion-poor water (IPW) conditions. In gill tissue of IPW-acclimated goldfish, transcript abundance of tight junction (TJ) proteins occludin, claudin-b, -d, -e, -h, -7, and -8d increased, whereas ZO-1 and claudin 12 mRNA decreased and claudin-c was unaltered. In association with these c...
متن کاملEnterotoxigenic Escherichia coli infection induces tight junction proteins expression in mice
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) causes diarrhea in travelers, young children and piglets, but the precise pathogenesis of ETEC induced diarrhea is not fully known. Recent investigations have shown that tight junction (TJ) proteins and aquaporin 3 (AQP 3) are contributing factors in bacterial diarrhea. In this study, using immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry analyses, we found that E...
متن کاملClaudin-3 tight junction proteins in Tetraodon nigroviridis: cloning, tissue-specific expression, and a role in hydromineral balance.
Claudins are a large family of integral transmembrane tight junction (TJ) proteins involved in regulating the permeability of the paracellular pathway. In these studies, we clone and describe the tissue distribution of four claudin-3 genes (designated Tncldn3a, Tncldn3b, Tncldn3c, and Tncldn3d) from the euryhaline spotted green puffer fish Tetraodon nigroviridis and examine the response of Tetr...
متن کاملTemporal and pathogen-load dependent changes in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) immune response traits following challenge with biotype 2 Yersinia ruckeri.
Rainbow trout infected with Yersinia ruckeri, the causative agent of enteric redmouth disease (ERM), produce a pro-inflammatory and acute-phase response attributed in part to the innate recognition of bacterial-produced flagellin. Recently, variants of Y. ruckeri have been identified that lack flagella and associated motility. These strains are classified as biotype 2 (BT2) Y. ruckeri and these...
