Heat-Induced Epithelial Barrier Dysfunction Occurs via C-Src Kinase and P120ctn Expression Regulation in the Lungs
Background/Aims: Thermal injury causes pulmonary edema and can lead to death. Intercellular junctions are composed of adhesive (p120ctn, E-cadherin, α-catenin and β-catenin) and compact (occludin and ZO-1) junctions. Heat deteriorates intercellular junctions and increases cell gaps to ultimately ind...
