Intestinal Permeability Regulation by Tight Junction: Implication on Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
Epithelial tight junctions (TJs) are the key structures regulating paracellular trafficking of macromolecules. The TJ is multi-protein complex that forms a selective permeable seal between adjacent epithelial cells and demarcates the boundary between apical and basolateral membrane domains. Disrupti...
